Greetings this is a long shot I am looking for a exploded parts diagram or a factory assembly diagram or any advise on aligning a Paper Input Unit (PIU) of a LaserJet 5Si ?
I have one that had a broken latch/tab that locks in tray 2, so I removed and carefully opened up the Paper Input Unit (PIU) and epoxied the tab that latches the tray but in the process I noticed there was another broken piece of plastic, a shaft that some of the stops were on. I so I had to remove a couple of gears and springs to epoxy in the broken parts.
I took lots of photos and carefully numbered the gears and springs and used painters tape to keep everything else in place however
When I re-assembled and tested it made a bad grinding sound when it lifted tray 2 and the lifter piece broke so I got some alignment wrong.
I am thinking I can save this thing if I can figure out how to align it, but mechanical gears are not my strong suit.
Thanks in advance
