5.4 PICK-OFF MECHANISM
[A]
[E]

[C]
The pick-off pawl solenoid [A] is energized 12 pulses after the registration
clutch turns on to feed the copy paper to the drum. The pick-off lever [B] then
rotates clockwise and pushes up the pawl holder [C]. This releases the two
pick-off pawls [D], allowing them to rotate against the drum.
Just after the leading edge of the copy paper passes the transport sensor,
the pick-off solenoid turns off again. The pick-off spring [E] then pushes down
the pawl holder, which moves the pick-off pawls away from the drum.
