Replacing the glass plate
Install the new glass plate in the scanner
1. Pick up the new glass plate with two hands holding it at each end to avoid touching
the glass surface.
2.
Take special care
to avoid touching the
glass plate’s bottom surface which normally
will not be cleaned during maintenance.
3. Stand at the rear of the scanner as you hold the glass.
4. Make sure you hold the glass for insertion with the surfaces facing correctly. Note the
direction of the facetted edges that indicate which is the document side of the glass.
See the glass plate profile illustration (right.).
5. Hold the glass so that it faces as shown below.
6. Lower the glass plate into the scanner at an angle as shown so that the glass plate
lower edge rest in the lower latches (see next step).
CAUTION
: The glass plate is long and thin and thus fragile. Take care not to break it.
