              Not a Canon door cheat, I still have a pic of them burned in my brain. Wouldn't surprise me if there was a couple kicking around the basement somewhere................

                OK, who can remember what this was for?

                      What's wrong with a folded up piece of paper for cheating door switches?

                        I remember using different interlock jigs back in the analog days. No use for interlock jigs anymore. Main reason jigs were used was to watch operation, paper travel for jamming, coronas coming on, etc. Nowadays in most copiers you can't see much when leaving front door open and jumping the interlock.

                        I just came across a jig that held up the clamshells so they didn't fall on your hand while working on machine. Looks like it clipped on the shock rod. As the old timers probably remember the shocks never held the copiers open. Back then my long phillips screwdriver was used more to hold "clamshells" up then for screws!

                          More often than not, I just used my vice grips and a cloth to hold the clam shell open.

                            Not to get off topic too much but how did the Jap's not realize that the shocks would not hold open the clamshell once the adf was installed. Most would stay open without the feeder. They forgot to test shocks with feeder installed. ha-ha
