When attaching the top cover, be sure to fit the link lever [2] while keeping
the drive release lever [1] in up position (i.e., with drive disengaged).
If you are fitting the drum cartridge in the machine with the top cover re-
moved, be sure to do so with the drive release lever [1] fully in up position
(i.e., with drive disengaged).
If the drive release lever is in low position (i.e., with drive engaged), it forces
out the coupling [2], causing the coupling to interface with the drum car-
tridge and to suffer damage.
