ACS Vesuvius Evo Leva

Cuprajake

so me being me, i took my naked pf and the double spout to work, quick measure and it seems the lugs/ears on the named are 0.5mm larger, they are a slanted ear going from 6mm to 7mm, so ive taken a bit of width off it, and will test tonight to see how it fits,

i do want to purchase one, just not sure where to buy one from.

Cuprajake Izzo Alexa Leva also sports the same LSM group. Not sure if this will get you to the desired 6 O’ Clock position. @BlackCatCoffee sells Izzo lever. You may check with David

Cuprajake You may try this

Cuprajake

thanks,

from what i was told, the machine was sold with a wrong machined naked pf, the single and double both lock correctly

LMSC

Cuprajake Yeah!

Cuprajake Perhaps write to Paolo, see what he says…you coul also buy some extra maintenance bits and bobs…Don’t tell him I suggested it.

Cuprajake

my dosing funnel from amazon doesnt fit, its a well made heavy piece just not a good fit, ill wait for the ims basket to come, and if it doesnt come then i will ask our @Norvin for one,

on a side note i never got an email response re the basket from your link @LMSC

LMSC

Cuprajake We all use Norvin’s dosing funnel. Infact, I have been asking him if he can make one, which can sit either on top of the IMS basket or outside. Finding the correct size for the external diameter of the basket is a challenge

Edit: Please try the second link, which I have provided. You may call them. They also sell 14g basket.

LMSC

DavecUK Don’t tell him I suggested it.

haha dave i did email paolo no reply, im going to send a second mail, as i have been having issuses with my hotmail

darkstefano

In the end i have used the tip of the internal seeger plier (that for the circlip). The effort was very big, but it resistend. I hope the next use is more easy.

Thanks to all, hope my experience help in future.

DavecUK

darkstefano IO hope you put a few wraps of PTFE tape on the thread, it will come off easier next time.

Cuprajake

My modded pf fits better, needs more off haha

Hi @Cuprajake,

Love the V-handle. Would love to fit one, but I’m not sure it would fit mine as it needs to fit under a cupboard above the machine.

Could you please ask your friend with the V-Handle to measure distance, when handle is in the resting position, from the top of the handle to an easy reference point, maybe the centre line of the big pivot bolt.

In additional, a side on photo of the machine with the handle in resting position would be helpful to see how for forward the maximum height of the handle is relative to the group. Looks like it may be further forward than the stock handle.

Thanks

Cuprajake

Hi, that was just a pic i found on hb forum, sorry not a clue to your questions

Cuprajake

one thing i ment to ask, an e61 shower screen has a rubber gasket that can be changed for silicone, is the leva group the same?

LMSC

Cuprajake @DenisS had changed, I believe. Won’t know who the supplier was.

Berryterry

LMSC i remember you opened the water tank tray hinge,, what screws were their? It seemed like a locking bolt type screw? As the tank reached my maximum annoyance level…

Cuprajake

take the back panel off, and there is a circle topped bolt its round with ribbs, need grips to hold, the back looks like 8mm, i loosesed min a tad as it squeeked haha

LMSC

Yeah, as Jake noted, back panel off and remove this tongue. I think it is an M10 Alan key. I removed it completely. Happy days 😁
