REPLACING THE ROLLER ASSEMBLY 87

REPLACING THE ROLLER ASSEMBLY

After extended use, the roller may wear out and will need to be replaced. It is a

user-replaceable part and can be ordered. See the section, “Visioneer Patriot

680 Scanner Parts List” on page 96 for the part number.

A worn roller can cause pages to feed in at an angle, multiple pages to feed at

the same time, or pages to not feed in at all because the scanner cannot grab

them as the roller slips on the page. If standard maintenance of cleaning the

roller and replacing the ADF pad assembly does not resolve paper feed issues, it

may be time to replace the roller.

Please note that you cannot accurately determine if the roller has worn out if it

has not been cleaned first. Excessive dust on the roller can make it smooth to

the touch so it appears worn out. You can take the roller out of the scanner to

clean and examine it before making the decision to replace the roller.

To remove the roller assembly:

1. Open the ADF cover.

The roller assembly fits in a channel in the ADF cover. You can identify

the roller assembly by its orange lock flange.
