6.1 PRESS ROLLER LOCK LEVER ADJUSTMENT

PURPOSE: To maintain the correct clearance between the press roller arms
and press roller lock levers. This ensures that the press roller is
correctly released and pressed against the drum when the press
roller release solenoid is energized.
ADJUSTMENT STANDARD:
Between 1.0 and 1.2 mm
1. Turn off the main switch and disconnect the power plug.
2. Remove the front cover (4 screws) and rear cover (6 screws).
3. Open the scanner unit, and turn the drum manually until the drum master
clamper on the drum moves into the bottom most position. (The top of
the cams on the drum flanges meet with the cam followers on both ends
of the press roller.)
NOTE: To find out the correct position of the drum for the adjustment,
refer to the rear end of the drum shaft. The round part of the
shaft must face to the bottom as shown [A].
