This listing is for a new 3D printed ABS plastic part which can be glued into place, at the end of which is a new "spring" piece to restore functionality of your Page End Indicator. I wanted to make this a complete kit, so it includes the ABS part, a small clamp to hold it in place while adjusting and gluing, and a white plastic spacer piece that is one way to fit it correctly--there was no affordable small epoxy option available, so you will need to use your own glue or epoxy.
Superglue might do the trick, but I recommend to use J-B Weld 50132: https://www.walmart.com/ip/J-B-Weld-PlasticWeld-Epoxy-Syringe-25mL/37572801
Here are the steps to do the repair:
1. Break off the old tab if it is still present, as shown in my photos
2. Learn how this feels when in the
right place by putting the piece in place (see photos) and swiveling the paper
support back and forth, the end of the ABS part snaps into the notched part.
3. Practice doing this with the clamp.
The ABS has a flat side, and a recessed side. Installed, you will be looking at
the flat side—the recessed side goes down with the glue! When clamping, use something,
a piece of plastic, thick paper, etc., on the “good” side of the paper support
so you don’t scratch the finish. Get things kind of in place, *almost* tighten
the clamp, then push the ABS part firmly up against and inside of the notch,
then tighten the clamp—not too tight or you may break something!
4. Test the rotation and it should
click into place, in and out, like in my video.
5. Once you get the hang of it, repeat
this process with the glue, patiently waiting as instructed for it to fully
cure.
6. ALTERNATE way to do it. The white cylinder
spacer can be used as a fitting guide, but to do this you need to punch out the
metal pin serving as an axle in the assembly, take it apart, and then put it back
together with the white spacer on the axle instead of the original notching
part. Then, you can just fit the ABS part against the spacer for correct gluing
position. Don’t glue the white cylinder in place!
Please reach out with any questions, best of luck for a new functioning paper rest / Page End Indicator!
