SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Keep the arc lamp cables and the vacuum flexible hose on the skid of the camera to allow for walking

clearance.

Always keep the camera rail free of tools and equipment to permit movement of copyboard and lensboard.

Disconnect the electrical plug from the transparency holder before reversing position of the copyboard.

Remove the crank handle from the camera immediately after raising the camera into the correct operating

position.

Keep the lens capped or in the lens box when not in use. Avoid touching the surface of the lens.

After using the focusing glass and before attempting to close the vacuum back, return it to the open

position.

Keep all accessory equipment beyond the swinging radius of the focusing glass and vacuum back.

Be sure that film or copy loaded on vacuum back, copyboard, or transparency holder is being held flat and

centered.

Before transporting to a new location, be certain the external power supply cable is disconnected from

copying camera.

Before moving the vacuum back, be sure that it is in operating position and that locking knobs are tight.

Do not leave old carbons inside arc lamp housing or ash tray. Shock to the operator or damage to the arc

lamp may result if carbon stubs are left in the lower section of the chamber.

Avoid removal of carbons from arc lamp when hot or warm, as serious burns may result. Wait until

carbons cool.

If carbons in arc lamps transmit excessive heat, check for deficiencies.

Continuous checking of the arc lamp carbons for dampness is necessary as dampness will cause

overheating when in operation.

Avoid looking at arc lamp when lit, as serious damage to the eyes will result.
