Precautions for Moving the Machine
- When carrying or moving the machine by lifting it for relocation to another floor, contact your service representative. Dropping or toppling the machine can result in injury or malfunction.
Safety regulations (RF emission and material regulations) differ in each country. You may be subject to prosecution if you violate local laws and regulations by moving this machine and consumables to another country.
Do not remove the fall prevention member.
When moving the machine over a long distance or to another building, consult your sales representative. When moving it to another floor in the same building, consult your service representative. Note that a charge will be incurred for this task.
Moving the Machine on the Same Floor
- Do not hold the control panel while moving the machine. Doing so may damage the control panel, cause a malfunction, or result in injury.
- When disconnecting the power cord from the wall outlet, make sure to pull the plug, not the cord. Do not pull the power cord forcibly. Doing so can damage the power cord, possibly resulting in fire or electric shock.
- Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet before you move the machine. While moving the machine, take care that the power cord is not damaged under the machine. Failing to take these precautions could result in fire or electric shock.
- If you have to move the machine when the optional paper tray unit is attached, do not push on the main unit's top section. Doing so can cause the optional paper tray unit to detach, possibly resulting in injury.
Take the following precautions when moving the machine:
Turn off the power of the machine.
Close the front cover, bypass tray, and all other covers.
Move the machine carefully while keeping it horizontal. Do not expose the machine to vibration or tilt it at a large angle. Doing so may cause a malfunction to occur, or damage the hard disk drive or memory of the machine, causing the stored documents being lost.
Consult your service representative when moving the machine while keeping its options such as the finisher attached.
When using RICOH @Remote, disconnect its ethernet cable before moving the machine. Move the RICOH @Remote adapter to a location where it can be connected to the machine. Connect the cable correctly to the port as before, and plug its AC adapter to the wall outlet.
Do not push on the auto document feeder (ADF) when moving the machine. If you apply force on the auto document feeder (ADF), it may become misaligned, causing copied or scanned images to become distorted.
