My best "macgyver" was Feed unit for D1 on a Ir8500 plastic cracked/broke around the vertical roller bearing causing jamming the upper portion would just hang in the drawer, so I took some Xerox Docutech staple wire melted some holes and wired that puppy together twisted the end and presto worked like a charm. still havent replaced the feed unit. staple wire has saved my but more than once.. k2 finisher knurler belt drive shaft plastic broke around the bearing well same fix as above. worked on ricoh finisher b478 internal stacker tray/ staple set tray on the upper shaft of the stack feed out belt (gotta make sure you grab the bearing lip with the wire or the shaft will ware through the wire)
