[Third Corrective Action: T/R No. ARE-391-4]
To prevent the malfunction (F1-87) of the stapler from occurring due to the movable PG SP
coming off, the shape of the hook of movable PG SP was changed. (The length of the left
hook is increased by 8mm, and the length of the right hook is reduced by 1mm.) Also,
please note that the shorter hook of the movable PG SP should be hooked to the movable
PG B/A ([3]-28/29) and the longer hook should be hooked to the alignment tray ([3]-18).
