Transporting the crates
Handling the crates
The icons on the crates indicate how to handle them during transport and storage:
Lifting the crates
To lift the crates, at least a fork-lift truck or two persons and a hand-powered pallet
mover are required.
Available doorway width for transport
If the width of the door(s) through which the crates have to be transported to the
installation site are too narrow, you will have to unpack the crates and transport all
parts to the installation site separately.
"Two or more persons are required for this operation.

Free space around the PlateWriter
Decide where the unit shall be placed and make sure that the free space around it
makes operation and servicing possible.
Be aware of the following:
•Liquid Dot cartridges need to be replaced on each side of the unit.
•Access to cables is required at the right side of the unit.
•Plates are loaded onto the input table from the front right of the unit.
•After imaging the plate must be placed on the finisher unit's transport belts from the
lower front of the unit.
•After finishing, the plate must be removed from the finisher unit’s exit tray at the
lower back of the unit.
The recommended minimum free space around the machine is specified in the
illustration below:

RIP workstation
Location
The RIP workstation must be placed within3m(9ft)from the imaging unit as they
need to be connected using the enclosed USB-cable.
$To avoid any harmful communication interference between the RIP
workstation and the imaging unit, it is recommended not to use a USB-cable
longer than3m(9ft).
Network connection
If the RIP workstation is going to be connected to a local network (LAN) make sure to
provide a network connection nearby.

Power supply
#Electrical installation must conform to local rules and regulations.
Main power connection
The PlateWriter System requires three main power connections, one for the PlateWriter
itself, one for the finishing unit and ink dryer (the ink dryer is powered from the
finishing unit), and one for the rip workstation.
The PlateWriter and finishing unit main power inlets are located at the right side of the
equipment (see illustration below).
