To remove the unit, remove the two screws that hold the flange and
pull the belt off the gear wheel. Then dismantle the gear wheel by

unit out into the paper compartment.
To dismantle the unit further, remove the #T20 Torx screw and
washer at the end of the shaft and pull off the bobbin, the compres-

felt. No further dismantling is normally required.

in the gear wheel works in the correct direction. Finally, fit the belt
over the gear wheel, adjust the tension of the belt as described in
chapter 8.4, and tighten the screws that hold the flange.
The braking torque can be adjusted by adding or removing washers
at the outer end of the shaft and should be adjusted to 160
