IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
1. Read these instructions carefully. Follow all warnings and instructions marked on the product.
2. Always disconnect the printhead and controller from the mains electricity and air supply before
attempting to clean or service it.
3. Never operate the printhead unless it is installed within the mounting frame supplied. When installed
correctly, the gap between the printer and print base should not be greater than 5mm. (see page 7)
4. Do not use the product near water. Never spill liquid of any kind on to the product.
5. Do not place this product on an unstable stand, table or machine. It may fall causing serious damage to
the product or injury to the operator.
6. Never insert objects of any kind into this product through any openings or gaps as they may touch
dangerous voltage points or short circuit parts that could result in fire or electric shock.
7. This product should only be operated from the type of electrical supply as indicated on the side guard of
the printer. (see page 5 & 39)
8. Ensure that the printhead connection cable is fully secured to the printer, with the bayonet connector
fully locked in place. Failure to do this will result in the machine not being properly earthed.
9. Use only the power cable supplied with the product. The cable supplied is three core mains cable,
utilising one wire as a grounding conductor. This must be connected to a suitable earth point at the
electrical supply. This is a safety feature. If any doubt arises in trying to connect the power cable, please
contact the manufacturer or agent who supplied the product.
10. Do not allow anything to rest on the power cable. Do not locate the product where persons will walk on
the cable.
11. If an extension cable is used with this product, make sure that the total ampere ratings of the equipment
plugged into the extension cable does not exceed the extension cable ampere rating. Also make sure
that the total rating does not exceed the fuse rating.
12. Do not service this product yourself as opening or removing guards may expose you to dangerous
voltage points, major burns and other risks. Refer all servicing to qualified personnel.
13. Do not attempt to use to use this product in areas where explosive gases or substances are present.
14. Once the product is under normal working conditions, care must be taken when removing the type
holder as you can easily burn yourself. There is a yellow warning sign on the type holder access door
indicating a danger. Open the door by gripping it at the side. The type holder can get very hot, it should
only be held by its plastic handle. Never touch the metallic parts, as temperatures could be as high as
220 degrees C.
15. Disconnect the product from the electrical and air supply, referring to servicing by qualified personnel
under the following conditions.
a. If the power cable is damaged or frayed.
b. If the air pipes are damaged in any way.
c. If liquid has been spilled into or if the product has been exposed to rain or water.
d. If the product does not operate normally when the operating instructions are followed. Adjust
only those controls that are covered by the instructions. Improper adjustment may result an
damage needing qualified technicians to restore the product to normal operating conditions.

Digi-3-Coder Installation Procedures
Do not connect the mains supply until you have ensured that correct voltage is being
supplied. (See page 5, Operating Specifications)
If the printer is fitted to a stand alone bracket provided by Open Date Equipment Limited,
connect the electrical supply as required. Connect a 6mm air pipe to the solenoid valve. The
air supply should be fitted with an Air Filter Regulator, not supplied by Open Date
Equipment.
Note!
The air supply received must be clean and dry, any moisture may damage the printer.
Procedures
1. Mount the printer into the frame.
2. Ensure the printer is approximately parallel to the print base, and the
clearance under the printer is approximately 5mm. (See page 7)
3. Place and secure the connecting box in a suitable position, ensuring the cable
socket reaches the printer. (see page 8)
4. Connect the two 6mm air pipes (red & black) to the solenoid valve & the
Printer (see page 8)
5. Connect a 6mm air supply pipe from the solenoid valve to a dry air supply,
through an Air Filter Regulator to control the pressure required. (see page 8)
Note!
Ensure all cables and air pipes are properly fed and do not obstruct the substrate or
printer movements.
