Ricoh aficio 1013 sqeaky fuser claws

[Robinh]

Working on a squeaky Ricoh Aficio 1013 and determined it is the fuser claws. I went to Precision roller and ordered a new set of claws. I ordered part number AE044036 but when I went to install them they are not the same as the claws in the machine.

Ricoh AFICIO 1013 Picker Fingers

The claws in the machine are tensioned with regular old coil springs and have a loop the spring connects too. The new claws I got from Precision roller have no loop and look like they are tensioned with a leaf spring. I need either a good part number or information about a possible upgrade?

Thanks!

Yeah, they also list that part number on the Precision Roller website. But I still get the claws without a loop to attach a spring too. Maybe someone knows of another source for these?

Thanks!

Take a picture of the stripper and email it to them. That ought to sort things out. I gave you the correct part number.

Thank you both for your efforts!

That looks like the trick, I will order those parts and post a reply when I have resolved the problem.

Thanks again,
