3.2.5 CR Motor Removal

1. Remove the upper housing. (See Section 3.2.1.)
2. Disconnect the cable from the CR motor.
3. Remove the timing belt spring to loosen belt tension. Then remove the timing belt from the CR motor
pulley.
4. Tip the CR motor unit slightly clockwise. Then remove the motor from the base frame (procedures 1 to
3 below).
After you have removed the CR motor, perform the Uni-D and Bi-D adjustments.
(See Chapter 4.)
Do not damage the surface of ink supply tube.
When assembling the CR motor, do not catch the cable for the DE sensor between the base
frame and middle frame unit.
Never touch the white PF gears. Handling them will cause damage or contamination that
will affect print quality.
When placing adhesive on the CR motor fan to attach the CR motor shaft, position the shaft within
1 mm of the back of the fan and set the sink side of fan toward outside. (Refer to Chapter 6.)
