2. BASIC OPERATION

[B]
[D]
[C]
Auto Feeder operation begins when an original is inserted into the original en­trance. At this time, the paper feed roller [A] and the relay rollers [B] start turning. The paper feed roller feeds the top sheet of paper past the friction pad [C] to the turn guides [D]. The relay rollers then feed the paper to the manual feed rollers [E]. From that point onwards paper feed continues in the same way as manual feed.
This model uses the friction pad method for paper feeding. The pressure of the friction pad must be more stronger for translucent paper than for bond paper.
[E]
[A]
The friction lever can be used to change the pressure of the friction pad. There are three settings.
Position Pressure Kind of Paper 1 standard Bond Paper
2 stronger Translucent Paper (A3, A4) 3 strongest Translucent Paper (A1, A2)
NOTE: When position 3 is selected, the copy paper feeding speed becomes
slower and paper/original registration will not function properly. To correct for this, the CPU delays original feed, and as a result, the copying speed becomes half (1/2) of standard speed.

[I]
Constant drive is provided from the main motor via the paper feed drive chain [A], to the drive sprocket [B], through some gears, and to the feed drive belt [C].
Engaging and disengaging auto feeder solenoid 1 [D] allows the spring clutch [E] to turn, thus driving the relay roller [F]. Engaging and disengaging auto feeder solenoid 2 [G] allows the spring clutch [H] to turn, thus driving the pa­per feed roller [I].

6. Room Size: More than 10 m3 (13.4 yd3)
7. If the installation place is air-conditioned or heated, place the machine as
follows:
a) Where it will not be subjected to sudden temperature changes
from low to high, or vice versa.
b) Where it will not be directly exposed to cool air from an air
conditioner in the summer.
c) Where it will be directly exposed to reflected heat from a space
heater in the winter.
8. Avoid placing the machine in an area filled with corrosive gases.
9. Avoid any area higher than 2,000 m (6,500 ft) above sea level.
10. Place the machine on a strong and level base.
11. Avoid any area where the machine may be subjected to frequent strong
vibration.
