• Left cassette paper feed
As the paper conveying clutch (CCL) turns on, the drive is transmitted to the upper and lower deck separation rollers,
starting paper feed from the left cassette. The upper and lower deck separation rollers ensure that the paper is fed one sheet
at a time and that it is fed into the copier correctly.
To prevent multiple sheets from being fed, there is a torque limiter on the lower deck separation roller.
• When the left cassette is empty, its lift serves as a guide for the paper being conveyed from the right cassette lift.
