    csc4035 fuser

    Had one tear up a bearing on the tension roller. I had another bearing, but now it is wrinkling the copies.
    My question is, do I have to replace the whole unit or can I rebuild this one?
    $600.00 is pretty hefty price for a new unit.
    Why do they call it common sense?

    If it were common, wouldn't everyone have it?

      Checked the KM4035 parts list and you can buy parts for that model. The part number for the bearing is 2FG20230.

          I think that you're talking about two different models The VoyagerE: CS-C4035E is completely different that the FalconII: CS-4035

          Yes, FalconII fusers can be rebuilt. VoyagerE fusers do not have individual parts available, yet I've scavenged together 30 or 40 of these over the years from scrap units.

          High fatality parts are the fixing belt, foam roller, bearings 688ADD (on the foam roller), Use the new style thermal fuse, heat roller, teflon coated and plastic inlet guides, exit guide front and rear can both warp.

          If you're not sure which model your scrap fuser came from, check the serial number: KXD... & KXR... are for the CS-C4035E. Lower speed models are all the same for VoyagerE and Voyager, and start with KXN...

          I can prepare a fuser in an hour. It seems worthwhile if you consider the cost. =^..^=
          If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
          1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
          2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
          3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
          4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
          5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

              I saw the 4035 without the "e" and thought it was the b/w model with an extra letter inserted.

                  The $600 price tag gave it away. I am constantly confirming with dispatch: FalconII or VoyagerE?

                      Re: csc4035 fuser

                      I checked the parts manual and it just shows a number for the fuser. Precision Roller said there was a kit for it but it was more expensive than the fuser itself.
                      I guess I will keep the old one for parts.
                      Thanks guys.

                      It was the sponge roller bearing that gave out, I had one from a Ricoh that fit and the fuser ran, but now the copies are wrinkled.
                      I tried messing with the pressure screws, but it didn't work.
                      Oh well now I am out $600.00 on a $75.00 a month contract.
                      Why do they call it common sense?

                      If it were common, wouldn't everyone have it?

                          At least it'll be paid off in 8 months.

                              Be thankful that Kyocera did eventually resolve all the issues with the fuser. New style thermal fuse, improved bearings, etc. There were 15 or more variation on that fuser until they got it right. When these machines first came out, I would get 100K or less from a fuser typically. That's why I started scavenging together spares. =^..^=
