The AR-5015 Parts Guide describes only changed from AR-163 Parts Guide.
For the common parts, please refer to the AR-163 Parts Guide (Code: 00ZAR162//P1/)
The definition of each Rank is as follows and also noted in the list
A : Parts necessary to be stocked as High usage parts.
B : Parts necessary to be stocked as Standard usage parts.
C : Low usage parts.
D : Parts necessary for refurbish.
E : Unit parts recommended to be stocked for efficient after sales service.
Please note that the lead time for the said parts may be longer than normal parts.
S : Consumable parts.
Please note that the following parts used in Copier under the same description are classified into A or B Rank depending upon the place
used.
Example : Gear made of Metal, Sprocket, Bearing, Belt made of Rubber, Spring clutch mechanism.
A Rank : The parts which may be with the revolution or loading.
B Rank : Parts similar to A Rank parts, but are not included in Rank A.
Because parts marked with “!” is indispensable for the machine safety maintenance and operation, it must be replaced with the parts
specific to the product specification.
