Skylark
Subject:
Paper Jam
From:
QAC 1st Field Information Dept.
Classification:
SYMPTOM:
Paper jam
CAUSE:
(1) Paper is not fed smoothly at the paper turn section on the paper tray.
(2) The paper tray is not set in the machine correctly.
(3) The middle driven roller ( A184 2585 ) does not turn smoothly.
SOLUTION:
(1) A mylar has been prepared in the event that this problem occurs. See the mylar
installation procedure and Fig.1 attached.
Though the part number of the Mylar is not fixed yet, it will be announced by MB
(Modification Bulletin) when the production line starts to use the Mylar.
(2) The paper tray can be set as shown in Fig.2. The rail is not set on the Rear Rib as shown
in Fig.2. So both the left and right upper rails must be on the rear and front as
shown in Fig.3. Sometimes the upper or lower rail of the paper tray can be set as
shown in Fig.4. Remove the paper tray from the machine and re-set it as shown in
Fig.3.
(3) There is a possibility that the middle driven roller ( A184 2585 ) has burr on it and this
makes the roller stick. So file off the burr and check to see if the roller turns smoothly.
