3d Printer file for load cover button?
Has anyone got the files need to 3D print the button that always drops out for the load cover?
Got a friend who has just got a printer

Not sure what button you mean. I can make you a CAD file if I know what part. Richard

Hi Richard
Thanks for the reply
I mean the part of the load cover locking mechinism, as you look in the boot on the right hand end of the load cover.
You have to press something to unlock the load cover to remove it, mine locks in place but there is just a hole in the load cover where I insert a screwdriver to unlock it.
I believe they are renowned for falling out
thanks

This bit?
Might be a bit of a big ask for a home 3D printer. A proper SLS machine might be able to print a usable part.Richard

I guess so never seen one before!!
So do you lift that to unlock, not push as I thought?
