Intermittent 0202 Jam Code

it maybe necessary to adjust the pressure on the separation roller (P/N FF6-1621-000) from the cassette/cassettes that the jam has occurred.
To either increase or decrease the pressure on the separation roller, move the torsion spring (P/N FB6-1902- 000) up or down one notch on the guide plate (see Figure 1 pic).
Note: This adjustment is not found in the in the service manual.

Move Torsion Spring down (to left) a notch to decrease separation pressure.

Move Torsion Spring up (to right) a notch to increase separation pressure.

Note: In addition to the previously mentioned separation spring adjustment, tie wraps may also cause this problem to occur.
The following procedure is suggested only if the separation spring adjustment does not resolve the issue.

PROCEDURE:
Remove the rear feeder panel; P/N FB6-1607-000 and carefully remove all the tie wraps coming off the Feeder Driver Assembly; P/N FG6-8648-000 (see Figure 2 pic).
