1 • Introduction

Personal Safety

Follow these precautions for your own safety:

• Treat every circuit like a gun that may be loaded. It may not be “live,” but be

sure. Check with a neon tester or voltmeter, or simply unplug the machine.

• Know how to turn off power in the work area and get help in an emergency.

• Don’t underestimate the danger of shock: 1 mA (1/1000 amp) is uncom-

fortable; 5 mA is dangerous —you may jump back and be injured; 12 mA

causes hand muscles to contract, so you cannot free yourself; 24 mA has

proven fatal; and 100 mA (1/10 amp) is likely to be fatal.

Familiarize yourself with proper procedures and methods before you install,

operate or repair the equipment to avoid personal injury or damage to the

equipment. If you train service people or equipment operators, it is important to

explain safety precautions to your students and encourage safety awareness.

1.4 Safety Warning messages appear throughout this manual to alert you to potentially

hazardous conditions. Two designations indicate their relative seriousness:

WARNING! Calls attention to improper practices that

could result in a potentially serious, even lethal injury to

you or the customer.

CAUTION! Calls attention to practices that could

cause minor injury to you or a customer or that could

damage equipment or material.

Introduction • 1

Personal Safety (continued)

• Don’t work on equipment under power unless it’s absolutely necessary.

If you must, use extreme caution. Don’t grasp two sides of a live circuit

at the same time—use one hand when reaching into a circuit, touching

a grounded case or chassis with that wrist or elbow if possible. This pre-

vents current from passing through vital organs. Observe this rule when

connecting or disconnecting plugs or leads, or making any adjustments

on a live circuit.

• Use the right tools for the job. A tool which slips can cause a short—or a

shock. Don’t reach into a circuit with metal tools, or while wearing rings or

a watch. Even in low voltage circuits, a metal object can short circuit two

terminals. When working on live circuits, use tools with insulated handles

and try to keep your tool hand grounded.

• Don’t bypass safety devices, particularly fuses. Three-wire outlets (120

Vac) are designed to ground equipment to make it safe. If a hot wire

shorts to a grounded frame, the only result is an open fuse. If a hot wire

shorts to an ungrounded frame, the frame itself becomes hot and poten-

tially dangerous. A fuse is a weak link in a circuit, designed to break down

before anything else does. The maximum safe current in a circuit is de-

termined by the designers. Too large a fuse can pass excessive current,

damaging expensive equipment.

• For electrical fires, use Type C, BC or ABC extinguishers only. Don’t use

soda acid or other liquid stream extinguishers. They will damage elec-

trical equipment and present a shock hazard to the user.

• Digital equipment can be easily damaged or destroyed by static charges.

Microprocessors and other integrated circuits contain tiny transistors not

much more than a millionth of an inch across, which operate at 5 to 12

volts.

• Be extremely careful when lifting heavy equipment. Follow the guidelines

below:

a. Squat to lift and lower. DO NOT bend at the waist.

b. Keep your low back bowed in while bending over.

c. Keep the weight as close to you as possible.

d. Bow your back in and raise up with your head first.

e. If you must turn, turn with your feet, not your body.

f. Never jerk or twist!

g. Put the weight down by keeping your low back bowed in.

h. Keep your feet apart, staggered if possible.

i. Wear shoes with non-slip soles.

j. Get help if you need it.

1.4 Safety

1-4 DA80F/DA95F AddressRight™ Printers Service Manual (SV61962 Rev. A)

1 • Introduction

Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Procedures

Follow these guidelines to protect sensitive equipment from static damage:

• Always use a wrist grounding strap and anti-static mat when working on

equipment sensitive to electrostatic discharge. These items are furnished

in the ESD Field Service Kit, L-8351.

• Ground yourself before reaching into the equipment, or touching any

circuit board or other electrical component. Just touching a doorknob or

metal workbench may be enough, but the best guarantee is to turn the

machine off but leave it plugged in, and ground yourself on the chassis,

which is grounded through the three-wire power cord.

• Be careful of rugs—even a few steps can recharge you. Re-ground your-

self whenever you’ve walked away and returned to the machine. Rugs

are a major source of static buildup in the body.

• Take greater precautions as the objects you handle get smaller. A board

in the machine is better protected than one that is not plugged in; a chip

on a board is better protected than one in your hand.

• Stay away from metal conductors. The plastic and resin that chips and

boards are made of are much better insulators than metal. It’s most im-

portant to keep your hands away from any metal which contacts the data.

In particular, this means the long connector along the bottom of each

board, and the pins coming out of the chips. These signal and data lines

are directly connected to the fragile inner circuits of the chips. When han-

dling a board, try not to touch the connector; when handling a chip, try

not to touch the pins.
