SAFETY WARNINGS

[1] Modifications Not Authorized by
Konica Minolta
Konica Minolta equipment is renowned for their high reliability. This reliability is achieved through high-quality design and a solid service network.
Unauthorized modifications involve a high risk of degrad­ing performance and safety. Such modifications are there­fore strictly prohibited. The points listed below are not exhaustive, but they illustrate the reasoning behind this policy.
PROHIBITED ACTIONS :
(1) Using extension cables or a different power cord
than specified by Konica Minolta.
(2) Using other fuses than specified by Konica
Minolta. Safety will not be assured, leading to a risk of fire and injury.
(3) Disabling fuses or bridging fuse terminals with
wire, metal clips, solder or similar. (This applies
also to thermal fuses.) (4) Removing air filters (except for replacement). (5) Disabling relay functions (such as wedging pa-
per between relay contacts, etc.). (6) Disabling safety functions (interlocks, safety cir-
cuits, etc.). Safety will not be assured, leading to
a risk of fire and injury. (7) Performing actions to equipment not described
in the instruction manual or the service hand-
book. (8) Using parts other than specified by Konica
Minolta.
[2] Checkpoints When Performing On-
site Service
Konica Minolta equipment is extensively tested before shipping, to ensure that all applicable safety standards are met, in order to protect the customer and customer engineer from the risk of injury. However, in daily use, any electrical equipment may be subject to parts wear and eventual failure. In order to maintain safety and reliability, the customer engineer must perform regular safety checks.
(3) Be sure to disconnect the power cord of the
equipment from the AC outlet. Simply turning off the power switch is not suffi­cient, because paper feed units or other electri­cal equipment may be powered also when the power switch is turned off.
(4) Proceed with special care when performing op-
eration checks or adjustment while the unit is powered. When carrying out operation checks or adjustment while external covers are removed, the risk of electrical shock exists when touching parts which carry high voltage or electrical charge. The risk of injury exists when touching moving parts such as gears or chains.
2. Safety Checkpoints
The following list is not exhaustive, but it includes actions which must be carried out at every on-site service.
CAUTION:
(1) Check external covers and the frame for sharp
edges, burrs, or nicks.
(2) Check external covers and hinges for loosening
or damage. (3) Check wiring for squeezing or damage. (4) Check power cord for insulation problems (con-
ductor must not be exposed). (5) Check power cord and cable ties etc. for loosen-
ing from frame.
WARNING:
(1) Verify that the equipment is properly grounded. If
a problem is detected, establish a proper ground
connection. (2) Connecting the ground lead to an improper point
such as listed below results in a risk of explosion
and electric shock.
Unsuitable ground points:
- Gas pipe
- Lightning rod
- Telephone line ground
- Plastic water pipe or water pipe or faucet that has not been approved by authorities for grounding use
1. Advance Preparation for Safety Checks
CAUTION:
(1) Wear clothing that facilitates work and is de-
signed for safety.
(2) Carry out all procedures carefully to prevent in-
jury.
3. Description of Safety Checks
CAUTION:
(1) Before performing safety check work, read all
relevant documentation (service handbook, tech­nical notices, etc.) and proceed according to the prescribed procedure, using only the prescribed tools. Do not carry out any adjustments not described in the documentation.
(2) If the power cord is damaged, replace it only with
the specified power cord. If the power cord insu­lation has been damaged and there are exposed sections, short- circuits and overheating may occur, leading to a serious fire risk.
(3) Do not route the power cord so that it can be
stepped on or pinched. Otherwise overheating may occur, leading to a serious fire risk.
(4) When disconnecting any cables, always grasp
the connector and not the cable (especially in the case of AC and high-voltage leads).
(5) Carefully remove all toner remnants from electri-
cal parts, electrodes, etc.
(6) Make sure that wiring cannot come into contact
with sharp edges, burrs, or other pointed parts.
(7) Double-check to make sure that all screws, com-
ponents, wiring, connectors, etc. that were re­moved for safety check maintenance have been reinstalled in the original location. (Pay special attention to forgotten connectors, pinched cables, forgotten screws, etc.)
(8) When installation and preventive maintenance,
verify that the power cord has been securely plugged into the AC outlet. Contact problems may lead to increased resistance, overheating, and the risk of fire.
WARNING:
Before disassembling or adjusting the equip­ment, make sure that the power cord has been disconnected.
[4] Measures to Take in Case of an
Accident
(1) If an accident has occurred, the distributor who has
been notified first must immediately take emergency measures to provide relief to affected persons and to prevent further damage.
(2) If a report of a serious accident has been received
from a customer, an on-site evaluation must be carried out quickly and Konica Minolta must be notified.
(3) To determine the cause of the accident, conditions
and materials must be recorded through direct on­site checks, in accordance with instructions issued by Konica Minolta.
(4) For reports and measures concerning accidents,
consult your superior, and follow the regulations set in "Standards for the Control Program for Measures Against Electrical Equipment Accidents".
[5] Conclusion
(1) Safety of users and customer engineers depends
highly on accurate maintenance and administration. Therefore, safety can be maintained by the appropri­ate by the proper daily service work conducted by the customer engineer.
(2) When performing service, equipment on the site
must be tested for safety. The customer engineer must verify the safety of parts and ensure appropri­ate management of the equipment.
[3]
Handling of Materials for Servicing
CAUTION: Alcohol-based and acetone- based
cleaners are highly flammable and must be handled with care. When using these materials for cleaning parts, observe the following precau-
tions. (1) Disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet. (2) Use only a small amount of cleaner at a time and
take care not to spill any liquid. If this happens, immediately wipe it off.
(3) Perform cleaning only in an environment where
sufficient ventilation is assured. Breathing large quantities of organic solvents can lead to dis­comfort.
(4) Do not replace the cover or turn the unit on before
any solvent remnants on the cleaned parts have fully evaporated.

(4) The second and subsequent sets of paper are conveyed and stacked.
1) The first page stops in the stacker entrance with the by-pass gate opened. The stacker entrance
roller stops to wait for the previous stack to be exited.
2) The by-pass gate is closed and the second page is stacked on top of the first.
3) Once the previous stack has exited, the stack entrance roller rotates and the first and second pages
are simultaneously sent to the stacker.
* The above steps (1) to (3) are for paper to a maximum of A4 size.
4) The stacker section roller sends the paper to the flat-stapling stopper and the paper is lined up in
the lengthwise direction.
5) The upper alignment plate lines up paper in the widthwise direction.
6) When all paper is conveyed to the stacker, the paper is stapled.
7) The second and subsequent sets are conveyed by the paper exit arm and the paper is exited to
the main tray.
