Deciding On an Installation Site
Install the machine in a quiet, stable location oering good operating conditions. An unsuitable location can
cause accidents, re, faulty operation, or breakdown.
WARNING
Install the machine in a location that is level, stable, and able to bear the
weight of the machine.
The total weight of the machine may reach over 290 kg (639.3 lb.) for the 64-inch
model, 260 kg (573.1 lb.) for the 54-inch model. Installation in an unsuitable
location may cause a major accident, including tip over, fall, or collapse.
WARNING
Never install this machine outside or in any location where exposure to
water or high humidity may occur.
Current leakage may cause electrical shock, electrocution, or combustion and
re.
WARNING
Never install the machine close to any ammable object or in a gas-lled
location.
Combustion or explosion may occur.
WARNING

Working in a location that is dark or cluttered may lead to an accident, such
as becoming caught in the machine as the result of an inadvertent stumble.
WARNING
Position the machine so that the power plug is within immediate reach
at all times.
This is to enable quick disconnection of the power plug in the event of an emergency. Install the machine next to an electrical outlet. Also, provide enough
empty space to allow immediate access to the electrical outlet.
CAUTION
Ensure adequate ventilation for the work area.
Failing to perform ventilation may result in a health hazard or danger of combustion due to ink fumes.
Unsuitable Installation Sites
Locations subject to large uctuations in temperature or humidity
Locations subject to shaking or vibration
Locations where the oor is tilted, not level, or unstable
Dusty locations
Locations exposed to direct sunlight
Locations near air-conditioning or heating equipment
Locations exposed to water or moving air
Locations exposed to considerable electrical or magnetic noise or other forms of electromagnetic
energy

Place the caster on the stand leg.
Place the stand leg with the tabletop plate facing down, and then place the caster on top of the stand
leg. The casters have no particular front and rear orientation.
Tabletop plate
B
Lightly tighten the bolts in the 4 upper locations and then in the 4 locations on the sides.
For the 4 upper locations, rst tighten the bolts in the narrow slots. In this way you can attach the caster
in the correct position.
Use washers in the 4 locations on the sides.
Tighten

C
Fully tighten the bolts in the 4 upper locations and then in the 4 locations on the sides.
Use the pipe when tightening the bolts in the upper locations. When tightening the bolts fully, tighten
them securely. Loose bolts may cause the stand to wobble.
Tighten fully
Bolts: 8
Washers: 4
Pipe
D
Assemble the opposing stand leg by following the same procedure from step A to step C.
E
Position the stand legs parallel to each other and separated by approximately 1,800 mm
(70.9 in.) for the 64-inch model or approximately 1,500 mm (59.1 in.) for the 54-inch model.
Position the legs so that the L-shaped brackets face the inside and the bent side of the tabletop plate
faces down for each leg.
About 1,800 mm (70.9 in.) (64-inch model)
About 1,500 mm (59.1 in.) (54-inch model)
Set this part on the bottom.
F
Place the stand stay on the stand legs.
Place the stand stay so that its inside touches the L-shaped brackets and the stand legs in order to make
the 2 stand legs parallel.
Position the surface
with attachment holes
toward the casters.
