The sector gear engages the lift gear on the Lift Motor shaft to raise the bottom plate.
• Bottom Plate
The Lift Motor through the lift gear and tray sector gear turn the lift shaft raising the bottom
plate which causes the media to contact the Nudger Roller. This activity is monitored by
the Lift Sensor. The bottom plate also actuates the media level indicator.
