    Experiencing some recent feeding issues, and looking to replace the sucker feet. Which we have yet to do on our 524 since the press was installed in 2020. Have the correct feet, noticing the old suckers are quite difficult to remove and would hate to damage. Is this common?

    You should be able to remove take off feeder housing and see if there are circlips holding in place also look for pins

    No clips, those suckers were just really stuck. Ended up pulling until they popped out. Hardest sucker change I have had in 17 years.
