– when pulling out the paper tray –
While the paper tray is being set in position, the operator side of the tray set
feeler [A] is pushed down by the tray release lever [B]. When the tray is
completely set in position, the operator side of the tray set feeler rotates up
and is positioned behind the tray release lever.
When the paper tray is pulled out, the operator side of the tray set feeler pulls
the bottom end of the tray release lever. The tray release lever rotates and its
upper end pushes back the tray lift gear shaft [C] which is pressed towards
the front by the spring. As the coupling between the tray lift gear [D] and the
limit feeler disc [E] is released, the tray lift lever [F] rotates back to its lower
position by the lever return spring [G] and the weight loaded to the tray lift
arm [H]. As the tray lift lever rotates back, it lifts the rear end of the tray lock
lever [I] to move it away from the safety lock position.
