through gears and the paper feed
clutches [B].

6.11.3 PICK-UP AND SEPARATION ROLLER RELEASE
MECHANISM
When the paper tray [A] is not inside the
machine, the separation roller [B] is
[C]
[E]
away from the paper feed roller [C] and
the pick-up roller [D] stays in the upper
position.
[A]
[B]
When the paper tray is set into the
B195D950.WMF
machine, it pushes the release lever [E].
This causes the pick-up roller [D] to go
down and the separation roller [B] to
move up and contact the paper feed
roller.
