MPC3502 fuser part Numbers

[neergish]

Doing my first PM on a MPC3502 fuser (its the only one I have in the field and has just tick over its 300k). Apparently I needs replace the Heating Sleeve Belt Unit, the Pressure Roller and the Pressure Roller Bearings. But I'll be buggered if I can find the part number for the PR bearings in the Ricoh's fantastic 3D parts catalog. I'd be much appreciative of anyone can supply this.

Also is there any other parts I should be thinking about changing at this PM? I already have black PCU + Dev, paper transfer and transfer belt cleaning unit on my list.

Pressure Roll comes with the bearings as a unit. Only 4 parts to rebuild these. Fuser sleeve, PR, and 2 thermisters.

PRESSURE ROLLER:ASS'Y (comes with bearings)

i'd also add the DF & cassette rollers while you're at it!

Whenever I replace the fusing sleeve on these, I now replace the stripper plate too, they get really dirty, which in turn damages the sleeve, if you clean the plate you can remove the Teflon which causes it to get contaminated even quicker. Maybe it's just me who does this though!

I think the sleeves should come with the stripper plate, shame they don't!

For what it is worth, if 3D parts manual comes with a PDF equivalent, open the PDF version, then set the magnification to 150%, then use the pdf search function to search for the text label of the part.
It isn't a cure all, but I've found it to be a lot less irritating than the other things I've tried.
The 3D parts manual is the weirdest thing. If they had just made the pictures look more like the parts we are looking for (a gear doesn't look like a cylinder, not even a little bit) or at least let us enlarge the images to see the parts in their proper perspective it could have been the coolest thing ever.
Oh well, too late now.

You can zoom most WindowXX.X software by hold down Crtl key and mousewheel up/down....

The only problem I have when doing this is that Ricoh has a habit of splitting words, i.e pressure might be pr on one line and essure on the next, and you end up with the first hit being in the list at the end.

IIRC the entire fuser assy isn't much more expensive compared to single parts for the MPCxxx2 series. Even not pricey enough to bother with SPC830 fuser units^^
