Field Measures:
Replace the spring (No.1) with the new one when the phenomenon described below arises. (Please refer to
the procedures on the next page.)
Serial Nos. of the Affected Machines: From the June 2013 production (Plan)*
* The above is the plan at the present moment. Please note that this information is subject to change.
[Change of the spring (No.1)]
1) If the ascending force of the DP feed
roller increases due to variation of
the torque limiter (X in the figure
above) which drives the DP feed
roller, the hook and hook lever are
dislocated and the DP feed roller
pushes up the top cover.
2) The engagement of the gears (A, B)
might be shifted and some abnormal
noise might be recognized.
The tension of the spring (No.1) was
increased to prevent the top cover
from being lifted up due to the
dislocated hook lever.
[Mechanism] (State when the top cover is closed)

Topic
When the power is turned ON or paper is fed to the DP, the engagement of gears (A and B) might be shifted and
some abnormal noise might be recognized due to the jumping gear depending on the variation of the parts.
Therefore, the following change was made.
Content of Changes
The spring tension for the hook lever to lock the top cover was increased in order to prevent the top cover from
being lifted up.
