Page 5

2. Notes to users
2.1. Warning and Cautions for Maintenance
This maintenance manual also includes safety requirements.
Read this manual carefully before performing any maintenance procedure to the splicer.
Keep this manual in a safe place.
Fujikura Ltd. accepts no responsibility for personal injury or physical loss including equipment damage
resulting from improper use or modification.

Alert Symbol
This maintenance manual indicates warnings and cautions by using alert symbols. It is important to understand
what it means.

WARNING
There is a possibility of personal death or serious injury resulting from improper use
by ignoring this indication.

CAUTION
There is a possibility of personal injury or physical loss resulting from improper use by
ignoring this indication.

Example of Alert Symbol

Symbol means Pay Attention.
The left symbol indicates Pay attention to explosion.

Symbol means Must not do.

The left symbol indicates You must not disassemble.

Symbol means Must do.

The left symbol indicates You must disconnect the AC power cord from the wall socket
or the appliance inlet.

Page 6

WARNING
The appliance inlet is used to disconnect the power cord when you disassemble the splicer.

Check to insert the all connector correctly before packaging.

Never maintain the splicer in an environment where flammable liquid or vapor exists. Extremely
dangerous fire and explosion could result from the splicers electrical arc in such an environment.
Do not disassemble or modify AC adapter and battery pack. In particular, do not remove or bypass
any electrical or mechanical device (e.g. a fuse or safety switch) incorporated into the design and
manufacturing of this equipment.
Check the connector to insert correctly before discharging.
During arc discharge, the electrodes generate high voltage and high temperature, and it causes
personal injury. Do not touch the electrodes during the maintain (though arc discharge stops when
the wind protector is opened). Turn the splicer power off, and disconnect the AC power cord (or
remove the battery pack) when replacing the electrodes.
This equipment is designed for splicing optical glass fiber for telecommunication. Do not attempt to
splice any materials other than the optical glass fibers.
Never use a canned type air cleaner to remove dust, or to clean the splicer. The electrical arc may
ignite any remaining gas mixture.
Safety glass should always be worn during the fiber preparation and the splicing process. A glass
fiber fragment can be extremely dangerous if it comes into contact with the eye, skin, or is ingested.
Use only specified power supply unit and proper AC power source.
Only the AC adapter / battery charger (ADC-07) or the battery pack (BTR-04) can be used for
supplying power to the splicer.
Proper AC power source to the ADC-07 is AC100-240V, 50-60Hz. Check the AC power source
before use. Improper AC power source out of the range can cause personal injury, emitting smoke
or equipment damage.
Abnormal high AC output voltage or frequency from an AC generator is a common fault.
Measure the output AC voltage by a circuit tester before connecting the AC power cord.
Improper high voltage or frequency from generator causes personal injury, emitting smoke or
equipment damage.
Use only specified AC power cord. Do not put a heavy object on the power cord. Also, do not pull,
heat up or modify the power cord. Using an improper cord or a damaged cord can result in a fire,
emitting smoke, equipment damage or personal injury.

Page 7

WARNING
Connect the AC power cord properly to the appliance inlet and wall socket. When inserting the AC
plug, confirm no dust or dirt on terminals, and insert it to the end. Incomplete connection can cause a
fire, emitting smoke or personal injury.
Connect the AC adapter / battery charger to electrical ground when using it. It is possible to connect
through a third pin of AC plug. No connection to electrical ground can cause personal injury.
Use only the specified battery charger (ADC-07) to recharge the battery pack (BTR-04) with a
battery charger cord (DCC-08). Personal injury or equipment damage can result from using not
specified battery charger. Proper AC power source to the ADC-07 is AC100-240V, 50-60Hz. Check
the AC power source before use. Improper AC power source can cause personal injury, emitting
smoke or equipment damage.
The appliance inlet is used to disconnect the power cord when the splicer is abnormal. Be sure to
position the splicer so that it is easy to disconnect the power cord.
Disconnect the AC power cord from the appliance inlet or the wall socket when the equipment emits
smoke or bad smell, or is noisy or heated up. Leaving the abnormal condition can cause a fire,
personal injury or equipment damage.
Disconnect the AC power cord from the appliance inlet or the wall socket when the equipment is
damaged (e.g. by dropping). It may cause personal injury or equipment damage.
Disconnect the AC power cord from the appliance inlet or the wall socket when liquid (e.g. water) or
an object (e.g. screw) enters to inside the splicer. It can cause personal injury or equipment damage.
Do not touch the splicer, AC power cord and AC plug with a wet hand. It can cause personal injury.

Do not operate and maintain the splicer when it is wet with dew. It can cause personal injury or
equipment damage.
Do not use the splicer in circumstance of extremely hot temperature. It may cause personal injury or
equipment damage.
Do not throw the battery pack away into a fire. Or, do not heat it up. It can cause a dangerous
explosion.
Do not short-circuit both terminals of the battery pack and the AC adapter / battery charger. Large
electrical current can cause personal injury, a fire or equipment damage.

Page 8

CAUTION
Do not store the equipment in any area where extreme heat and humidity are present. It may cause
equipment damage.
During / after heating the splice protector, do not touch the ceramic heater and the splice protector.
The high temperature may cause personal injury.

Do not place the splicer at an unstable place. In a case of dropping the equipment, it can cause
personal injury or equipment damage.
Precise adjustment and alignment have been made to this splicer. Do not give a strong shock. Use a
carrying case to transport and store the splicer. The carrying case will prevent damage and provide
protection from moisture, vibration and shock during storage and transportation.
Keep the splicer free from sand or dust. It degrades the splicing performance.

Replace the electrodes properly.

Only specified electrodes can be used.
Set the new electrodes to the correct position.
Replace the electrodes as a pair.
Not following the above cautions can cause abnormal discharge. And, it can result in equipment
damage or degrading the splicing quality.
Do not use any other chemical except alcohol to clean the objective lens, V-groove, mirror, LCD
monitor, body and so on. Doing so may cause blurring, discoloration or deterioration.

The splicer requires no lubrication. Oil may degrade the performance and damage the splicer.

Repair or re-adjustment should be performed by an authorized engineer, except the electrodes

replacement. Failure to repair the equipment can result in personal injury or equipment damage.
Please contact a sales agency in your country.

Check the following:
1. Check PCB connections and Keypad.
2. Locate the two LEDs at the right/front side of PCB.
3. LED1 is 5V line and LED2 is 12V line. They should be illuminated. If LEDs are illuminated
proceed to step 9.
4. If both of LED1 and LED2 are not illuminated, check the voltage between CN27 and CN23. If this
voltage is not 12V, the power supply may be damaged and should be replaced.
5. If LED2 is not illuminated check the fuses. If fuse is broken, replace fuses.
6. Check voltage between 12V (example - No3 pin of CN01) and GND.
7. If no voltage, check for possible short circuit (loose screw, etc.). Replace PCB if short circuit
cannot be found.
8. If LED1 is not illuminated, check voltage between 5V (example - No3 pin of CN14) and GND.
9. If no voltage, check for possible short circuit (loose screw, etc.). Replace PCB if short circuit
cannot be found.

Check the following:
1. Disconnect connector (H03) from PCB.
2. Measure resistance value of heater element (Pins 1,2 of H03). Typical resistance value is 6 to 7
ohms. Check for broken lead or replace heater element if necessary.
3. With tube heater cool, measure resistance of termister (Pins 3,4 of H03). Typical resistance value is
400k ohm at a temperature is 25C and 300k ohm at 30degrees. Check for broken lead or replace
heater element if necessary.
4. Measure voltage between pins No1 and No2 of CN29 after pressing [HEAT] key. Typical voltage is
12V. Check power supply output or replace main PCB if necessary.
