B. Sequence of Operations (pick-up from the cassette)
1. Pick-Up Operation
The paper inside the cassette is held up by the lifter, and it is in contact with the pick-up roller
at time of pick-up.
The pick-up roller is driven by the cassette pick-up motor (M5), but is moved down by means
of a cam operated by the drive of the main motor (M1) switched by the pick-up roller down
solenoid (SL1).
The feeding roller and the separation roller make sure that only one sheet of paper is moved to
the feeding path; the paper is then moved as far as the registration roller by the No. 2 registration
roller and the vertical path roller.
The drive of the vertical path roller and the No. 2 registration roller is switched by turning on
and off the vertical path roller clutch (CL3).
The drive of the registration roller comes from the main motor (M1) by way of the registration
roller clutch (CL1). Table 7-103 and Figure 7-103 show the loads in the cassette pick-up assembly
and a conceptual diagram of the electrical parts.
