3-5-1. Unit, Head
- Carefully handle the “Unit, Head” when disassembling and reassembling so as not to
damage the thermal elements of the “Unit, Head”. Especially, avoid contacting the
thermal elements with the metal part, etc.
The “Unit, Head” can be removed easily without detaching any other parts.
1. Open the top cover.
2. Open the head block by pushing the head open lever.
3. While holding the “Unit, Head”, turn the screw until the “Unit, Head” comes off.
4. Remove the “SA, Head Cable” from the “Unit, Head”.
Notes on reassembling:
• When attaching the “Unit, Head”, do not strongly push it against the head block. The Head Earth
Plate may come off if you push the “Unit, Head” strongly.
• Securely fasten the “Unit, Head” with the screw.
• When you replace the “Unit, Head” with a new one, adjust the angle of head spacer shaft, if
ribbon wrinkles are not removed. (This adjustment will be required only when satisfactory results
are not obtained by adjusting the ribbon tension with the adjusting screws of the “Unit, Ribbon
Frame L”.)
Refer to “3-6-3. Ribbon Skew Adjustment”.
