1. Cautions
• Turn the power off before cleaning.
• Each block in the mechanical deck consists of a precision part and is adjusted precisely. Be careful not to
damage each part and to apply an excessive force during cleaning.
• Do not touch the greased portions during cleaning. If grease attaches to a cleaning cloth, replace the
cleaning cloth by new one. If a cleaning cloth smeared with grease is used, grease may attach to the
places where it should not.
