Deciding On an Installation Site
Install the machine in a quiet, stable location offering good operating conditions. An unsuitable location can cause accidents, fire, faulty operation, or breakdown.
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 207 kg (457 lb.) (30-inch model: 154 kg [340 lb.]) or more. Installation in an unsuitable location may cause a major accident, including tip over, fall, or collapse.
Never install this machine outside or in any location where exposure to water or high humidity may occur.
Current leakage may cause electrical shock or fire.
Never install the machine close to any flammable object or in a gas-filled location.
Combustion or explosion could occur.
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.
Install the machine in a clean, brightly lit location.
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.
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.
