When the drum is pulled out, the drum stopper [A] drops down into the hole
as shown in the figure and the drum stopper stops the drum unit from being
pulled out any further.
In this condition, if the operator pull the handle [B], the drum unit cannot
drop.
When the stopper releasing lever [C] is moved to the operation side as illus-
trated in the direction of the allow, the drum stopper releasing lever pushes
up the drum stopper [D] to the same level as the drum rail cover[E]. This al-
lows the drum to be removed.
