[C]
When the drum is pulled out, the drum stopper [A] will drop down into the
hole as shown in the figure and the drum stopper will stop the drum unit from
being pulled out any further.
In this condition, if the operator pulls the handle [B], the drum unit cannot be
dropped.
When the stopper releasing lever [C] is moved toward the operation side of
the machine as illustrated (in the direction of the arrow), the drum stopper
releasing lever will push the drum stopper [D] to the same level as the drum
rail cover [E]. This will allow the drum to be completely removed from the
machine.
