Please observe the following precautions when transporting this copier.

• Before moving the copier, always turn the power OFF and unplug the copier from its power source.
• Before moving the copier, be sure to disconnect the power cord from the copier.
• If the copier will be subjected to any vibrations (e.g., when transporting long distance) remove the cartridge from the copier.
• Before operating the copier again after it has been moved, slide the platen all the way to the right and then back to the center position by hand.

1. Fold the trays up as shown in the illustration, and insert the trays into the opening between the disc and the platen cover. Then pull out the carrying handle.
   
   
   

2. Firmly grip the carrying handle. Slowly tilt the copier upward. Then lift the copier.
   When the unit is tilted the platen will automatically lock into place.

• Make sure that the trays are set correctly under the disc on the platen cover.

• Double check to make sure the trays are set correctly under the disc on the platen cover.

• If transporting the copier over a long distance, secure the platen cover with packing tape and remove the cartridge.

• When transporting the copier take extra care not to subject it to vibrations or shock.

• If you need to set the copier down for a while, place it upright on a flat surface with the carrying handle on top.

• When lowering the copier to a horizontal position (installation position), do so slowly.

   • Do not attempt to use the paper feeding slot, exit slot, multi-stack tray or the copy tray as handles. Attempting to carry the copier by holding one of these may cause it to break off, and thus cause the handler to drop and damage the copier.
