Installation precautions
WARNING
• Never touch the processing wheel while it is turning.
It may result in injury.
• If the wheels are chipped or cracked, immediately stop the instrument.
If chipped or cracked wheels are used, they may break or shatter resulting in injury.
• Use a hand cart to move the instrument to a different location. At least two persons
are necessary to lift the instrument.
Back injury or stumbling may occur when a single person attempts to move the instru-
ment
• Be sure to wear protective gloves when using a cutter.
A cutter or sharp edge of the band or corrugated cardboard may cause injury.
In addition, never move the cutter directing it toward hands or the body even if wear-
ing gloves due to its sharp edge.
CAUTION
• Installation must be performed only by personnel who know this instrument well.
• Handle the instrument carefully during transportation to protect from shock.
• Use the special packing materials when moving or transporting the instrument.
• Unpack the package in an area with ample space, checking the safety of the
environment.
• Keep the packing materials to move or transport the instrument.
• Do not install the instrument in a place exposed to direct sunlight or hot and humid
places.
• Do not install the instrument in a place which has a tilted floor or vibration.
• Leave a space of 10 cm or more behind the instrument.
If the fan is blocked, the temperature inside the instrument will rise and it may cause
malfunction.
• Be sure to install the instrument where the power source and power voltage as
indicated on the label are connect.
• Connect the main power plug to a grounded outlet.
Electric shock or fire may occur in the event of malfunction or power leakage.
• Install the device in area where the outlet that the power plug is inserted into is
easily accessible during use. In addition, ensure that the power cord can be
disconnected without the use of a tool.
Otherwise, it may interfere with disconnecting of the power from the input power
source in case of abnormality.
• Use only the specified pliable cup remover when removing the pliable cup from a
lens.

III
:
CAUTION
• Be sure to make the correct material selection for the lens being processed.
If an improper material is selected, the lens may break or the lifetime of processing
wheels may be reduced substantially.
• Be sure not to drop the removed screws inside the instrument or lose them.
