MAINTENANCE OF THE MACHINE
WARNING: Before doing any dusting, turn the power switch off and disconnect the power cord from the machine. It is very
important to clean all the sensors in the machine with a soft brush to avoid any paper particles or dust from sticking to the
light transmitter or the light-receiver sensors. It is important to clean the inside of the machine occasionally. Unplug the
machine and lift the top cover to gain access to the interior.
If necessary, the glass surfaces of the detectors may also be wiped with a soft cloth damped with alcohol.
To get the best results out of your bill counter, Royal Sovereign recommends using Royal Sovereign Cleaning Cards
(RBC-CLN) to remove dirt, dusts, oils, and other contaminates from bill counters. With the machine on, simply run the
cleaning card through the machine like a bill. This cleaning card will run through and clean the sensors of dirt and other
contaminates. Cleaning cards are recommended to be used after every 100 cycles.
CAUTION: DO NOT CHANGE THE POSITION OF THE DETECTORS AND/OR OPTICAL SENSORS
