REXON GPT-317A THICKNESSER

[tony coleman]

IM LOOKING TO REPLACE THE HANDLE THAT OPERATES THE THICKNESS ADJUSTMENT ON MY REXON BENCHTOP THICKNESSER,HAS ANYBODY GOTT ANY IDEA WHERE I MAY SOURCE ONE....TIA

[Rolf]

I would replace it with a crank handle. The knob, if that is what you are looking for looks awkward to use for me. Something like this https://www.mcmaster.com/hand-cranks

You should have an equivalent parts supplier to our McMaster in Ireland.

I agree with this statement above 100%

The manual does show a hand crank, but the images that I found show just a round knob.?
