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 Patriot 430 Scanner Parts List” on
page 88 for ordering information.
1. Press the ADF cover release on the top left of the scanner body to open
the Automatic Document Feeder cover.
2. The ADF pad is located behind the scanner buttons.
3. Squeeze the plastic clamps that hold the pad assembly in place and lift
the pad up and out.
4. Reverse the procedure to replace the new pad into its slots.
5. Close the cover when you’re finished.
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.
