3INSTALLATION
Following chapter displays how to mount USB reader v2 to device. The configuration could be different from
type of device or vendor type. Other thing is that reader can’t be mounted only to device, because it can work
as card reader for SafeQ Client application or Recharging point for SafeQ Credit Application, so mounting
should be different according to usage.
3.1 MOUNTING OF THE READER MODULE
The mounting kit (plastic holder) enables both right-handed and left-handed installation to the MFD.
First prepare the components from the package:
plastic holder
screws
reader module
Prepare the plastic holder for the reader and remove the plastic “fork”. See the following pictures.

When the plastic construction is prepared, it can be mounted with crews directly to the machine. See Picture 3
- Mounting kit on the device (when not many screws is possible to mount, use double side tape for better fix-
ing)
