9. Transporting GT-541
This chapter describes how to transport GT-541.
WARNING
Do not put your hands in the ink cartridge slot, otherwise the needle inside the slot may cause injury.
CAUTION
Setting up and moving of the printer should only be carried out by a qualified technician.
The printer machine weighs approximately 100 kg. Transporting and setting up of the printer should be
carried out by four or more people.
Furthermore, do not hold the printer by the ink cartridge housing when transporting it, otherwise the ink
cartridge housing may become damaged and the printer may fall down and cause personal injury or
damage to the printer.
Wait at least 1 minute after turning off the power switch before opening the front cover.
Touching the heat sink on the head can result in burns.
Be careful not to get your fingers caught when closing the front cover, otherwise it may result in injury to
your fingers.
Take care not to let the ink, waste liquid or wash liquid come into contact with your eyes or onto your skin,
otherwise inflammation can result.
Furthermore, do not drink the ink, waste liquid or wash liquid under any circumstances, as they can cause
vomiting and diarrhoea.
Keep the ink, waste liquid and wash liquid out of the reach of children.
