5. Wipe the ADF pad from top to bottom. Be careful not to snag the
cloth on the springs on either side of the pad.
6. Wipe clean all plastic surfaces, then close the rear cover.
REPLACE THE ADF PAD ASSEMBLY
The ADF pad will wear out and is designed to be a user-replaceable part.
Problems with documents feeding into the ADF is an indication that the
pad is wearing thin.
You received a replacement pad in the original scanner box, and you can
also order a new one. See the “Visioneer Strobe 500 Scanner Parts List” on
page 110 for ordering information.
1. From the back of the scanner, lower the input tray.
Note: Please be careful when cleaning the roller. The roller is designed to
rotate in one direction only. As you’re cleaning the roller, make sure it
rotates easily, and continue rotating it in that direction while wiping it
clean. Do NOT force the roller to rotate in the opposite direction.
Forcing the roller to rotate will damage it, and may cause the scanner to
feed pages incorrectly.
