Where to Put Your Machine
Machine Environment
Your machine's location should be carefully chosen because environmental con-
ditions greatly affect its performance.
Optimum environmental conditions
CAUTION:
CAUTION:
• Temperature: 10 – 32°C (50 – 89.6°F)(humidity to be 54% at 32°C, 89.6°F)
• Humidity: 15 – 80% (temperature to be 27°C, 80.6°F at 80%)
• A strong and level base.
• The machine must be level within 5 mm, 0.2" both front to rear and left to
right.
• To avoid possible buildup of ozone, be sure to locate this machine in a large
well ventilated room that has an air turnover of more than 30 m
3
/hr/person.
Environments to avoid
• Locations exposed to direct sunlight or strong light (more than 1,500 lux).
• Locations directly exposed to cool air from an air conditioner or heated air
from a heater. (Sudden temperature changes might cause condensation with-
in the machine.)
• Locations close to machines generating ammonia such as a diazo copy ma-
chine.
• Places where the machine might be subjected to frequent strong vibration.
• Dusty areas.
• Areas with corrosive gases.
• Keep the machine away from humidity and dust. Otherwise a fire or an elec-
tric shock might occur.
• Do not place the machine on an unstable or tilted surface. If it topples over,
an injury might occur.
• If you use the machine in a confined space, make sure there is a continuous
air turnover.
