LQ-2070 Service Manual Maintenance 6.1 PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE Preventive maintenance includes regular cleaning of the exterior case using denatured alcohol, as well as occasional vacuuming of the mechanism interior to remove dust and paper debris. After cleaning the unit, check that it is adequately lubricated, as described in Section 6.2, below. Before returning the printer to the customer, inspect springs, paper-feed rollers, and basic operation. CAUTION Disconnect the printer from the external AC power source before performing maintenance. Do not use thinner, trichloroethylene, or ketone-based solvents on the plastic components of the printer. 6.2 APPLYING LUBRICATION EPSON recommends the printer be lubricated at the points illustrated to the following pages. Table 6-2 lists each point along with its recommended lubricant. The recommended lubricants are EPSON G-26 and O-2, which have been tested extensively and found to comply with the needs of this printer. (Table 6-1 provides details about these lubricants.) Before applying a lubricant, be sure the surface to be lubricated is clean. Do not apply too much lubricant, as this may damage nearby parts. Table 6-1.
