[19] Check the water supply FILTER. If necessary, change the FILTER.
Caution
• Any obstruction such as biological growth, tight bends, or an upward sloping WASH DRAIN HOSE can cause wash water to return to the WASH TANK causing an overflow of water.
• Concentrationsofchlorinebleachhigherthan10%orallowingthechlorinebleach to remain in the PROCESSOR for longer than 30 minutes can cause damage to the PROCESSOR.
[20] Check the WASH DRAIN for biological growth, tight bends, or other obstructions. To remove biological growth
do the following steps:
(a) Fill the WASH TANK and DRAIN with a 10% solution of chlorine bleach. (b) Wait a minimum of 20 minutes and a maximum of 30 minutes. (c) Drain the chlorine bleach solution and rinsethe TANK and DRAIN thoroughly with water before you return
the PROCESSOR to normal use.
Warning
• Drains at the site must be made of chemically resistant, non-corrosive material. Use PVC or the equivalent.
• The drain must have a minimum diameter of 7.6 cm (3.0 in.) and be free of obstruction.
• Drain service must comply with local codes.
[21] Correctly route the WASH DRAIN HOSE to slope down toward the floor DRAIN. If necessary, use
REINFORCED HOSES that resist making tight bends. Right angle ELBOW FITTINGS are also available. The Part Numbers are:

• WET SECTION COVER
• WATER DISCONNECT and WATER RESERVOIR
• EVAPORATION COVERS
• all CROSSOVERS
• DRYER RACK
• WASH RACK
Caution
To prevent contamination of the developer and fixer solutions when you remove the FIXER RACK and the DEVELOPER RACK, place the SPLASH GUARD between the DEVELOPER TANK and the FIXER TANK. Use the DRIP TRAY when you remove or install the RACKS.
[4] Install the SPLASH GUARD between the DEVELOPER TANK and the FIXER TANK. [5] Remove:
• DEVELOPER RACK
• FIXER RACK
• SPLASH GUARD
Warning
• Carefullyfollowallsafety precautions and directions included with the and
Kodak
DEVELOPER SYSTEM CLEANER AND NEUTRALIZER.
• The RACKS in the PROCESSOR have hollow ROLLERS. Use the instructions for cleaningRACKS with hollow ROLLERS. Do not immerse RACKS with hollow ROLLERS in SYSTEM CLEANER. SYSTEM CLEANER that remains inside the ROLLERS will contaminate the processing solutions.
• When circulating SYSTEM CLEANER or water through the recirculation system, energize the developer COOLING SOLENOID and the RECIRCULATION PUMP using the PORTABLE COMPUTER. Otherwise the following may occur:
– The effectiveness of the DEVELOPER SYSTEM CLEANER AND NEUTRALIZER will be greatly reduced
because of the developer remaining in the HEAT EXCHANGER.
– The DEVELOPER SYSTEM CLEANER AND NEUTRALIZER remaining in the HEAT EXCHANGER will
contaminate the new developer when the PROCESSOR is returned to operation.
[6] Clean the DEVELOPER RACK and the DEVELOPER TANK with
AND NEUTRALIZER, CATALOG No. 843 4615.
[7] Clean the FIXER RACK, the WASH RACK, and the FIXER TANK with
CLEANER, CATALOG No. 139 5110.
[8] Cleanthe WASHTANKwith
solution of chlorine bleach.
[9] If necessary, clean the LEVEL SENSOR PROBES with the correct SYSTEM CLEANER.

3 Month Preventive Maintenance
Caution
• Any obstruction such as biological growth, tight bends, or an upward sloping WASH DRAIN HOSE can cause wash water to return to the WASH TANK causing an overflow of water and damage to the ELECTRICAL BOX.
• Concentrationsof chlorine bleach higher than 10% or allowing the chlorinebleach to remain in the PROCESSOR for longer than 30 minutes can cause damage to the PROCESSOR.
[24] Check the WASH DRAIN for biological growth, tight bends, or other obstructions. To remove biological growth
do:
(a) Fill the WASH TANK and DRAIN with a 10% solution of chlorine bleach. (b) Wait a minimum of 20 minutes and a maximum of 30 minutes. (c) Drain the chlorine bleachsolution, andrinse theTANK andDRAIN thoroughlywith waterbefore returning
the PROCESSOR to normal use.
Warning
• Drains at the site must be made of chemically resistant, non-corrosive material. Use PVC or the equivalent.
• The drain must have a minimum diameter of 7.6 cm (3.0 in.) and be free of obstruction.
• Drain service must comply with local codes.
[25] Correctly route the WASH DRAIN HOSE to slope down toward the WASH DRAIN. If necessary, use
REINFORCED HOSES that resist making tight bends. Right angle ELBOW FITTINGS are also available. The Part Numbers are:
