Cause for Lexmark Lexmark CX510 ADF Pick Up Roller Replacement
These rollers don’t really have a life cycle according the the service manual. However, I have been replacing them when I replace the separation roller, which does have a life cycle. The life cycle of the separation roller is 200,000 sheets. With that being said, I’ve been seeing them wear out around 150,000 pages. The develop flat spots and other abnormal wear that causes misfeeds and paper jams.
Note : Just remember to order in the separation roller assembly. These parts really need to be replaced at the same time.

OK, the service manual doesn’t really tackle this procedure.
1. There is two clips on either side of the pick up assembly circled in red. Unclip them and pull them down about 90 decrees and the assembly should just pop out.
2. The replacement assembly goes in the same way.
The only thing I’ve had issues with is the paper guides marked in green in the picture. They need to lay flat in the assembly with a little play. The clips that lock in place have inner clips to hold it to the metal shaft. These inner clips cause a little problem with the guides during install. I’ve found it a little easier to get the pick up assembly in and then mess around with the guides to get them in the right position. Again, they should be flat like the picture shows but they also should fit freely on the shaft to allow for movement.
ADF separator roll removal

Pretty straight forward job. Should take about 15 minutes or so. Maybe a little less time if you are not an idiot like myself and struggle putting the pick up roller assembly in.
