Retrofit Information

It has been reported that several sorter stapler (A377) entrance guide become deformed.
(This is introduced in F400/F410 RTB No.13, please refer to it for details)

Since the F400 finisher has the same type of guide plate, the entrance guide plate [A] is
separated from the finisher and kept in the accessory bag.

This is implemented from the first February 1994 production machine.
Whenever transporting the sorter stapler after taking out of the carton box, separate the

guide plate from the finisher. Reset it just before you dock the finisher to the copier.
The installation procedure (accessory) has also been modified. Please refer to the

following pages. Step #13 has been added. The other steps are the same as before.
