The user can slide the master eject box out from the operation side of the machine.
The front handle of the box [A] has a lock mechanism as shown above.
The master eject box contains a pressure plate [B], which compresses the ejected
masters in the box. The pressure plate also works as a guide plate feeding the
ejected master into the box.
An independent dc motor, the pressure plate motor, drives the pressure plate. The
motor is in the pressure plate drive unit, on the rear frame of the machine separate
from the master eject box.
When the master eject box is slid out, the joint [D] for the pressure plate drive
disengages. At the same time, the lock lever [C] turns, due to tension from a spring,
to hold the pressure plate [B] in the home position.
When the master eject box is re-installed, the drive joint [D] is connected and the
pressure plate lock lever [C] is released as shown above.
