Drive from the main motor is transmitted to the pump gear [A] through gears and a
timing belt [B]. When the gear [A] rotates, it drives the piston [C] back and forth.
The piston moves forward and pushes a jet of air out through the nozzle [D]. This
jet of air helps to separate the paper from the drum.
