Remove the rear cover (6 screws).
With a (1Omm) open end wrench, gradually rotate the shaft (A)
counterclockwise until the cam follower of the sector gear (B) is at the
high lobe of the cam (F).
Make sure that the overthrow clearance between the latching plate (C)
and the sector stopper (D) is 0.1 to 0.3mm (Fig. 1).
If the overthrow clearance is incorrect, loosen the two Allen screws (E)
and adjust the clearance by shifting the latching plate (C) left to in-
crease or right to decrease.
Manually depress the plunger of the paper feed solenoid (G), and con-
firm the clearance between the latching plate (C) and the sector stopper
(D) is 0.1 to 0.5mm (Fig. 2).
If the clearance is incorrect, loosen the screws (H) on the solenoid
bracket (G) and adjust by shifting the paper feed solenoid
bracket (G)
up or down.
