13. Remove the photoreceptor drum from the printer. (See page
42.)
14. Place the drum on a covered work surface.
15. If the drum is only slightly dirty, clean it with ethanol or isopropyl
alcohol.
Do not use acetone.
16. If the drum has toner buildup, clean it with the drum freshener
pad (listed in Table 1 on page 63). Turn the drum little by little
while polishing the drum surface with the freshener pad. Polish
with a slight force in the direction of the drum circumference,
using a circular motion. Let the polished areas slightly overlap
each other, and polish the entire drum surface two or three
times.
CAUTION
Press lightly when polishing the drum surface, as too much
pressure can damage the drum.
17. Using the special dry tissue paper (listed in Table 1 on page
63), thoroughly wipe the drum freshener off the drum surface.
18. Wipe the drum surface again using a Toraysee cloth (listed in
Table 1 on page 63).
19. To avoid exposing the drum to light for too long, temporarily
pack the drum in its original packaging material, and close the
box cover. Set the drum aside for now. (You will install it later.)
20. Remove the drum auxiliary rod from the drum shaft.
21. Wipe the drum shaft clean with a cloth.
