5.1 SERVICE REMARKS
1. Do not touch the pick-up, feed, separation rollers and the friction pads
with oily bare hands.
2. The side fences and the rear fence of the paper trays should be
positioned correctly to align with the actual paper size. Otherwise, paper
misfeeds may occur.
3. The friction pad should be replaced together with the friction pad holder
and pad entrance seal as an assembly.
4. The friction pad assembly and the paper feed roller should be replaced
as a set to maintain paper feed ability. (A worn out feed roller will provide
incorrect friction pad pressure.)
5. The friction pad holder mounting bracket must be reinstalled on the
original paper tray. Because the friction pad pressure is adjusted for each
paper feed station independently at the factory.
6. The paper tray with the friction pad mechanism must be reinstalled at the
original paper feeding station.
7. The friction pad pressure should not be adjusted in the field.
