Important Safety Notes
Follow the normal safety precautions for all office equipment:
• Read all instructions before attempting to operate the equipment.
• Use this equipment only for its intended purpose.
• Use only Pitney Bowes approved supplies, in particular aerosol dusters. Improper storage and
use of aerosol dusters or flammable aerosol dusters, can cause an explosive-like condition that
could result in a personal injury and/or property damage. Never use aerosol dusters labeled
flammable and always read instructions and safety precautions on the duster container label.
• To obtain supplies, please contact our Supply Line™ to place orders. Material Safety
Data Sheets can be obtained on the web or from our Supply Line™. Refer to the Contact
Information List for more information.
• Use the power cord supplied with the equipment and plug it into a properly grounded wall
outlet located near the product and easily accessible. Failure to properly ground the equipment
can result in severe personal injury and/or fire.
• Avoid touching moving parts or materials while the equipment is in use. Keep hands, loose
clothing, jewelry and long hair away from all moving parts.
• Do not place fingers in the feed or cutter areas while the equipment is running.
• Turn equipment off during periods of non-use.
• Do not remove covers or defeat safety interlock switches. Covers enclose hazardous parts that
should only be accessed by properly trained service personnel. Immediately report to service
any damaged or non-functioning components that renders the unit unsafe.
• Place the equipment in an accessible location to allow for proper venting and to facilitate
servicing.
• The power cord wall plug is the primary means of disconnecting the equipment from the AC
supply.
• Do not use an adapter plug on the line cord or wall outlet.
• Do not remove the ground pin from the line cord.
• Do not route the power cord over sharp edges or trap between furniture.
• Ensure there is no strain on the power cord and that it does not become jammed between the
equipment, walls or furniture.
• Be certain the area in front of the wall receptacle into which the equipment is plugged is free
from obstruction.
• Before clearing a jam, be sure equipment mechanisms come to a full stop.
• When removing jammed material, avoid using too much force to protect against minor personal
injury and damaging equipment.
• To prevent overheating, do not cover the vent openings.
