Under normal conditions of anticipated use, with appropriate handling and adherence to the safety precautions, the materials used with the HP Scitex FB7600 do not present health hazards. However, when handling inks and solvents used with the FB7600, operators should always take the following precautions: • Extreme care must be taken when handling inks and solvent, in order to prevent the risk of explosion. • Do not operate the system in the presence of explosive liquids, vapors or gases. • Avoid contact with skin and eyes and wear the safety goggles and gloves provided for protection against splashing. Do not handle inks or solvents when wearing only contact lenses without goggles. • Wear respiratory protection (active carbon mouth filters) when pouring inks or solvents, or when cleaning the machine, in order to avoid inhalation of solvent fumes and vapors. • Wear suitable clothing and shoes whenever in the print production and storage areas. • Keep all sources of ignition far away from the printer and from the print production and storage areas. • Make sure not to lift heavy loads that can cause you damages, use lifting accessories to avoid the risk. Such loads can be media piles and ink containers. • Maintain good ventilation in the print production area. • Ensure that the print production area is kept clean and organized. • Store inks and solvents in tightly closed, upright containers in normal, cool warehouse conditions. • Surfaces where any ink spillage or leakage has occurred must be wiped clean immediately. • Avoid poisoning by washing hands before eating, after smoking, and before leaving the site. Caution Use only HP Scitex UV inks and solvents approved by HP Scitex. • Do not plug in or turn on power to the system if hazardous substances are detected in the environment. Should these substances be detected after the system has been turned on, do not attempt to unplug it, or turn off power. Evacuate and ventilate the area before turning off power to the system. Caution Always make sure that all main ink tank lids are properly closed. 9
