Chapter 4 1 Mechanical System

1 Mechanical System

(1) Adjusting the Timing Belt Tension

1. Remove the ADF Front cover.
Adjustment procedure
1. Loosen the set screw.
2. Use the set screw to adjust the belt's tension,
applying a force of approx. 500 g to the timing
belt in the direction of the arrow with a tension
gauge so that the deflection is 2±0.5 mm.

(2) Adjusting the Feeding Plate Pressure

1. Remove the ADF Front cover.
Adjustment procedure
1. Open the ADF cover.
2. Adjust the angle of the angle so that the
feeding plate starts to move when the feeding
plate comes into contact with the feed roller,
applying a force of 200 g with a tension gauge.
