    Please guide me about use which way to adhere them together?
    I search internet for these keywords:
    spray adhesive plastic and several thousand results display to me with their pictures but I am not sure which type of adhesive is most appropriate for me , with low cross section area and small broken piece
    it is necessary to note that spring plate(part number: A232 3883 and color of brown) was bend very long ago and I attached it to place with tape glue

    My Drive Roller - Transfer Belt after a while is gone out the correct position from Arm - Transfer Belt
    And I must to open transfer unit and release springs and open the two screw from both side and fit manually the Drive Roller and reopen the two screw and reassemble the transfer unit and insert to machine and hope that I will have not to repeat these task for 1000 copies or more . please guide me about troubleshooting this problem .
    Thanks a lot
    Color printing with lowest cost per page is my love.

    Don't glue it, just replace it. Any part that is under spring tension won't hold for long no matter what type of glue you use.
    It's 106 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.

    Hit it.

      Second that. Too much tension, too many moving parts, and too much toner blowing around to try and glue that small of a piece back on and hope for any hope of long term success. It may work as a quick fix until the replacement can arrive, but even with that I'd be leery...

            I have melted a big paper clip into the plastic and coated the paper clip with JB weld.
            Not in this app, but in the DI351 doc feeder where the front bushing holder broke.
            I cut off the rear bushing holder and JB welded it to the front with metal reinforcement.
            6 months and still holding.
            Why do they call it common sense?

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