This step-by-step tutorial will further break down the steps to remove the Xerox WorkCentre 7525 DADF feed roll kit. After deciding that replacing or changing the feed roll kit is the necessary next step to get your machine functioning properly, follow these individual steps on how to replace the nudger roll and feed roll correctly, replace the retard roller, and remove the paper pickup roller. Let’s begin!
STEP ONE: OPEN TOP COVER
The first step you’ll want to take is to open the DADF top cover.
STEP TWO: OPEN UPPER FEED CHUTE
Once the DADF top cover is open, you’ll open the feed upper chute.
STEP THREE: REMOVE FEED ROLL AND NUDGER ROLL
First, you will want to remove the housing. Then, remove the nudger and feed roll (note these two rollers are the same; there's nothing different about them) by pulling the rollers towards you so they can come out with no problem.
STEP FOUR: REPLACE FEED ROLL AND NUDGER ROLL
Next, you’ll want to insert the new ones in the same way you took them off. Once you have installed the nudger and feed roll, you want to install the housing. Insert them in the same direction you removed the old ones. Once the rollers are in place, you will want to close the feed upper chute
STEP FIVE: REMOVE THE RETARD ROLLER
Begin by lifting the housing with a flathead screwdriver, pull the retard roller out. Then, remove the shaft from the retard roller. Press the two tabs on one of the sides and slide the shaft out of the roller, pulling from the other side.
STEP SIX: REPLACE RETARD ROLLER
Next, insert the shaft back into the new Retard roller. Lift the housing and place the roller inside it (it will only fit one way). Once you press it down and it locks in place, the housing will close with no problem.
STEP SEVEN: CLOSE DADF TOP COVER
Finally, close the DADF top cover, and you're done!
