slightly ignitable
irritates the eyes and the respiratory organs.
3.1 Storage and handling (normal use)
GENERAL
These products must only used at points that are free from open
flames and other ignition sources. Do not use pressure for
emptying – the container is not a pressure vessel. Good household
practice and regular, safe removal of the waste materials restrict
the danger of self-ignition and other risks of fire to a minimum. The
product can charge statically. When pouring from one container to
another use a mass lead. The workers must wear anti-static shoes
and clothing and the floors must be conductive.
STORAGE
Observe the marking information. Store at 5 to 25°C in a warm, well
ventilated location at a safe distance from heat and ignition sources
and direct sunlight.
Do not smoke! Do not grant access to unauthorised persons.
Open containers must be properly closed and stored upright in
order to avoid leakage.
Smoking, eating and drinking must be forbidden in the storage and
working areas. Always keep in containers from the same material
as the delivery containers.
HANDLING
The development of combustible or explosive vapour concentrations must be prevented and vapour concentrations avoided that
are above the threshold values of the employers liability insurance
association. Keep containers closed tightly.
Keep sources of heat and sparks as well as open flames well away.
Use only spark-free tools. Electrical devices must be protected in
accordance with the corresponding standard.
Avoid contact with the skin and eyes. Do not inhale vapours and
spray mist.
Page 18
Service Manual JET3
18 Rev. 1.0
3.2 First aid measures
EYES
Contact lenses must be removed. Rinse thoroughly with pure,
fresh water for at least 10 minutes, keep eyelids spread and call
a doctor.
SKIN
Remove contaminated clothes. Wash skin thoroughly with soap
and water or with a branded skin cleansing agent. DO NOT use
solvents or thinners.
INHALING
Take patient into the fresh air and keep warm and calm. In the
event of irregular breathing or of breath being missed
resuscitate artificially. Do not give anything orally, place
unconscious patients on their side and call a doctor.
MISCELLANEOUS
In case of doubt or with persistent symptoms call a doctor.
Never give anything orally to unconscious patients.
3.3 Fire fighting measures
EXTINGUISHING
AGENTS
Recommended:
Alcohol-resistant foam, spray water/mist, CO2 or
powder
DO NOT use water jets. Cool closed containers exposed to the
fire with spray water.
RISK OF FIRE
AND EXPLOSION
As the product contains combustible organic constituents, a thick,
black smoke develops in the event of fire that contains dangerous
combustion products. Decomposition products can constitute a
danger to health. Extinguishing waste water must not enter the
waste water channels or waters.
PROTECTIVE
MEASURES
If necessary suitable, independent breathing apparatus is
required.
Page 19
Service Manual JET3
Rev. 1.0 19
3.4 Measures in the event of accidental release (spillage)
PRECAUTIONARY
MEASURES
Switch off sources of ignition and ventilate room. Keep personnel
that is not absolutely necessary away. Do not inhale any vapour.
Observe the protective measures listed.
ENVIRONMENTAL
PROTECTION
MEASURES
DO NOT allow to enter waste water channels or waters.
Should the product enter waste water channels or the drainage
system the local water supply authority must be informed
immediately. In the event of contamination of streams, rivers or
lakes inform the national water authorities. Vapour is heavier than
air and can spread out on the ground. In combination with air it can
form an explosive mixture.
RESTORATION
Restrict and suck up spilled substances with a non-combustible
absorbent material (e.g. sand, earth, vermiculite, infusorial earth)
and collect in a suitable container for removal. Preferably clean
areas with spilled substances with a detergent. Avoid solvents.

5.3.2 Grounding (Potential equalization)
Grounding (Potential equalization)!
In case of a non existing grounding or that the grounding of the printer
is not carried out properly, this could cause serious injury or death and
it can also cause malfunctions or damages at the printer!
These dangers or demolitions can happen for example because of
electrostatic discharge (ESD) or potential difference.
Specially for countries without existing protected earth connection, there is a special
grounding point located at the side of the printer.
This threaded socket must be connected to ground if there is no ground pin in the mains
socket/plug.
The threaded case is sealed inwards and thus IP 65 conform. With a screw and a ring
terminal (cable lug) the grounding can be fixed easily.

Service Manual JET3
Rev. 1.0 27
The print head should be mounted to the printed product that the notch in the head cover
is placed vertical to the moving direction of the product. It can be installed horizontal,
vertical, from the top or from the bottom.
For installation from the bottom it has to be prevented that dirt can enter in the print
head. For this a head ventilation is required which can be purchased optionally.
The print head mounting should be carried out that a fast separation of the print head
from the device for cleaning purposes is possible.
The print head should be attached vibration-free. The hose connection
of the print head should not be smaller as a radius of R60 statistically
and dynamically not below R100!
The distance of the print head to the product depends on the required character height.
As smaller the required character height, as smaller the distance of the print head to the
product (smaller distances produce better type quality)
Note: In general a distance of round about 8-10mm is recommended.
For applications with extreme small or large character heights a micro- and macro print
head are available optionally.
Installation of print head
During an installation of a device in a production line, the operating
staff should be not endangered. Due to moving products under the
print head danger of bruisings and shearing can be caused. The
regulations of the machinery directives should be observed!

1) Cleaning of print head
We want to ask for your attention regarding the print head cleaning process:
Please be aware, that the print head has to be cleaned with solvent only in the front area.
Behind the red line you must not clean with solvent.
Especially the area around the oscillator connection must not be flushed with solvent. Otherwise
solvent could penetrate inside the oscillator or the connector and could cause damages or
mal functions.
no cleaning area => no solvent
cleaning area => solvent
Page 60
Service Manual JET3
60 Rev. 1.0
2) Cleaning of print head/electrode block with special
cleaner 77001-00020
1. Remove the print head cover. Loosen the two allen set screws at the side with an allen key
2,5 mm (metric) with one turn and remove the inner cover.
Attention:
Don’t use any kind of allen hydraulic settings with a ball head function.
This will damage the screws!
2. At the lower side of the bearing block you have to loose the allen screw with an allen
key1,5mm (metric) until you can turn the bearing block into the upper service position.
To lock this position, tighten the set screw back again.
For some types of ink, a persistent ink deposition at the guiding shaft assembly and
electrode block would occur. In this case, our company offers a special cleaner for cleaning
this area.
It is strongly recommended to turn off the printer when you cleaning the print head with this
kind of cleaner. No cleaner should be enter to the ink loop/hydraulic system.
Special Cleaner P/N: 77001-00020
Page 61
Service Manual JET3
Rev. 1.0 61
Clean the Print Head only at the correct area, right of red dotted line.
Attention:
It is forbidden to clean on the left side of the dotted line. Don’t use any kind of
solvent to clean the left side of the dotted line.
Especially in the area of the oscillator and plug connector it is not allowed to wash with
solvent. When solvent enter the oscillator, it could destroy this part or some malfunctions
could occur.
No cleaning necessary!
=> No Solvent usage!!

3. Decline the print head into upfront position. Fill up Special Cleaner 77001-00020
into a spray bottle and spray it to the affected parts for cleaning. Together with a small
brush you can easily remove the pollution in the cleaning area.
Important assemblies which will be affected in their functionality during persist ink
deposition:
-
1. Deflection Plates
-
2. Charge Electrode
-
3. Guiding shaft for the Gutter Tube
4. Due to some special ingredients of the cleaner, it is strongly recommended to flush all
the cleaned parts with tap water at the end of the cleaning process.
5. Rinse off the cleaned parts with original solvent again, to avoid remaining of special
cleaner at the assemblies.

Service Manual JET3
Rev. 1.0 63
6. In some cases, there will still remain some rest of ink into the slot from the charge
electrode. This could create some error messages, e.g. phasing error or error of
drop control.
To remove this rest of ink you can use a fine sand paper. With assistance of
this fine sand paper it is possible to clean the slot of the charge electrode.
Attention:
Use only sand paper with a corn diameter of 400 and higher!
7. Bend this thin sand paper with the rough side outside. Spray some special cleaner on
the sand paper and move it inside the slot of the charge electrode. Carry out the
movement parallel to the bottom side of the charge electrode. Rinse off the charge
electrode with tap water and solvent to avoid remaining of special cleaner at the
charge electrode. Dry up all the print head parts with an airgun.
8. Rotate back the bearing block from the service position and lock them with the set screw.
9. Install the inner cover and tighten it. Don’t smash or brake any cables and pipes during
this action.

nozzle adjustment is released.
7. Take out the nozzle and clean it properly from both sides with the appropriate solvent.
Wash up first the nozzle outlet, then the nozzle entry.
8. Generally it is allowed to clean the nozzle with an appropriate “ultra sonic bath”.
Especially for tenacious deposits of ink Leibinger offers a special cleaner
(77001- 00020) to clean the nozzle.
9. Clean the nozzle at first inside the ultra sonic bath with the appropriate solvent
which is used on the printer (depending of the used ink!)
10. Blow out the nozzle with clean air pressure (2 - 6 bar). Center the air-gun exactly in
the middle of the nozzle and blow out for several seconds. First against the nozzle
outlet and then against the nozzle entry. This process can be repeated for an
unlimited number of times.
11. Clean the nozzle the second time inside the ultra sonic bath, but now with the
special cleaner 77001-00020 (for round about 10min)
Page 67
Service Manual JET3
Rev. 1.0 67
12. Due to some special ingredients of the cleaner, the nozzle must be washed up with
tap water at the end of the cleaning process.
Blow out the nozzle with clean air pressure (2 - 6 bar). Center the air-gun exactly in
the middle of the nozzle and blow out for several seconds. First against the nozzle
outlet and then against the nozzle entry. This process can be repeated for an

Hint: Due to the constructional positioning of the adjustment screws, there will be
always a movement like a skew during the adjustment on any screw. Due to this
existing skew, usually both adjusting screws must be adjusted for the correct attitude.
5. After adjustment of the entire drop production unit into the charging tunnel
and deflecting plates, it has to be adjusted in such a way, that the ink stream knew
parallel and concisely with the internal left of the charging tunnel.
(Viewing direction: From nozzle toward gutter tube).
The ink stream should run absolutely parallel to the deflecting plate.
Required tools:
6-fold magnifying Glasss
Allen key (SW 1,5 mm) or Torx (T6)
During the optical evaluation of the radiation situation it is important that
the point of view is directed exactly perpendicularly from above via the charging tunnel

1) Cleaning of print head
We want to ask for your attention regarding the print head cleaning process:
Please be aware, that the print head has to be cleaned with solvent only in the front
area.
Behind the red line you must not clean with solvent.
Especially the area around the oscillator connection must not be flushed with solvent.
Otherwise solvent could penetrate inside the oscillator or the connector and could
cause damages or mal functions.
No cleaning necessary
=> No Solvent usage!!
Cleaning Area
=> Solvent can be used!!
