The pickup unit consists of a pickup roller and a separation roller. When the Start key is
pressed or the original pickup signal arrives, the pickup motor (M2) starts to rotate in
reverse to move down the pickup unit, and the pickup roller and th separation roller start to
rotate to pick up an original. The separation pad and the separation plate are used to make
sure that no more than one original is picked up and fed at time of pickup.
