2-1 Mechanical Construction 2-1-1 Mechanical construction The paper feeder consists mainly of the left and right cassettes and separation section. The left cassette paper feed section sends paper from the lift to PFseparation rollers 1 and 2. When the left cassette becomes empty, the right cassette paper feed section conveys paper onto the lift of the left cassette.
(1) Left cassette paper feed As the PF paper conveying clutch (PFCCL) and PF separation clutch (PFSCL) turns on, the drive is transmitted to PF sep- aration rollers 1 and 2, starting paper feed from the left cassette. The PFseparation rollers 1 and 2 ensure that the paper is fed one sheet at a time and that it is fed into the machine cor- rectly.
(2) Right cassette paper feed As the last sheet in the left cassette is fed, PF paper feed clutch 2 (PFPFCL2) and PF paper feed clutch 1 (PFPFCL1) turn on for paper feed from the right cassette. PF paper feed rollers 1 and 2 start to rotate to convey paper from the right cas- sette onto the left cassette lift.
(3) Raising and lowering the lifts The following is a description of the right cassette lift operating mechanism. The left cassette lift operates in the same manner. PF lift motor 2 (PFLM2) drives the right lift belt assembly that winches the belt up and hence raises the lift until it is stopped by level switch 2 (LSW2).
(4) Detecting the paper level The lift rises as paper in the cassette is used. When the remaining number of sheets in either right or left cassette reduces to around 100 to 250 sheets, the projection on the lift belt assembly pushes against the sensor lever which turns the relevant paper level sensor 1 or 2 (PLS1/2) on. When both paper level sensors 1 and 2 (PLS1/2) have turned on, the message [Low on paper.] is shown on the machine message display.
