3.4 When the ASF Gear Initial Position Adjustment is Required
When installing the ASF, the ASF gear initial position adjustment must be executed to match phase with
the purge unit's ASF drive gear, which is the transmission source of the ASF drive, and the ASF gear.
Preparing for the Adjustment:
Make sure that the purge unit's ASF drive gear is in the initial position when assembling. If it is in the
initial position, assemble the printer with the ASF unit removed, and Procedures 1) through 3) are not
necessary. If it is not in the initial position, follow the adjustment procedures described below.
1) Manually rotate the ASF drive gear slowly in the direction of the arrow to move it to the initial position.
2) Stop rotating the gear until a click can be felt (where the rotation stops).
(To confirm the position, gently move the ASF drive gear vertically with your fingers. Make sure that
the gear is at the position where click can be felt.)
3) If the gear has passed the click position, rotate the gear in the arrow's direction to return to the correct
position.
