Paper Lift

2.2 PAPER LIFT
A spring [H] and a white bar are below the bottom plate [G]. The white bar has a spring [A]
and two hooks [D]. These hooks hold the bottom plate. The white bar moves to the two
sides.
When you push the paper tray into the paper feed unit, the roller on the left side [C] pushes
the white bar. The white bar moves to the right side (shown from the machine front). The two
hooks on the white bar release the bottom plate. The spring pushes the bottom plate and
lifts it up. The uppermost sheet of paper in the tray is pushed to the feed roller [F].
When you pull the paper tray out of the paper feed unit, the triangular rail [B] on the left side
pushes down the roller [E] on the paper tray. This roller is attached to the bottom plate. The
bottom plate is gradually pushed down when you pull the paper tray. Finally, the bottom plate
reaches the white bar. The hooks on the white bar hold the bottom plate.
