Field Remedy
Check and locate the cause of the failure following the procedure below.
A) Check the contact between the H.V. contact point torsion spring of ETB and the contact point of the
Fixing/Feed unit.
1) Open the front cover, and turn the fixing feed unit pressure lever in the counterclockwise direction to pull
out the fixing feed unit.
2) Push and release the release springs at both sides of the rail, and then further pull out the fixing feed unit
until it stops.
3) Remove the 1 screw, and then detach the fixing feed right front cover.
4) Check if foreign objects are mixed in or if there is poor contact between the H.V. contact point torsion
spring[1] of ETB and the contact plate[2] of the Fixing/Feed unit. If the position of the H.V. contact point
torsion spring (FC9-7854-000) is displaced, correct the position, or if the same part is deformed, then
replace it. Also check the contact plate (FC9-5698-000) and if it is deformed, replace it as well.
