1. Measure to prevent W-feeding of the original document.
1.Model Name: SF-A15/A16
2.General: The measure described below has been carried out as a measure to improve problems
of W-feeding of the original document.
3.Description: ➀ Separator plate springs have been stacked double for both F and R as a measure to
maintain the overwrap volume between the separator belt and the feeder roller and
stabilize the paper smoothing performance when a problem of W-feeding occurs.
➁ The cushion mylar sheet has been discontinued and the cushion has thus been left
bare as a measure to increase the friction resistance. This change has been carried
out as a measure to prevent W-feeding of the last two pages of the original document.
(Note : As a market action for machines which were produced before 1996 October ,
it is possible to avoid problems by attaching a cushion on top of the cushion mylar
sheet which is currently installed.)

[Sequence for installing original document retainer parts]
1. Detach and remove old parts.
1) Turn the power supply of the copy machine OFF.
2) Open the ADF. Detach the retainer roller stay assembly by removing the two screws
attaching it (two locations, one on each of the left and right sides). Remove the belt
retainer roller holder (F side) and belt roller holder (R side) ∗2 which secure the front
and rear sides of the D belt retainer roller ∗3, and remove the D belt retainer roller.
(Note: The screws which were removed will be used later, and should therefore not
be lost.
(∗2, and ∗3 are for model SF-A54 only.)
