When there is paper in the left tray, lock lever [A] in the left tray catches the pin [B]
in the right tray.
During copying if there is no paper in the left tray:
Right tray lock solenoid [C] turns on, which releases lock lever [A].
The left tray can be pulled out to load paper, even while paper is feeding from the
right tray.
When the tandem tray is drawn out fully while the machine is not copying,
projection [D] pushes up lock lever [A] so both trays separate. This makes paper
loading easier.
