Replace the Input tray

Replace the DryStar 5300's Input tray (spare part CM+343348.X) with a short crosshead screwdriver in about 15 minutes: clear the tray, pull the Input block module first, free two screws, and lift the tray away — then reverse the sequence, remembering to hold the film plate down as the new tray goes back into place.
