This utilizes the parts from the existing Prusa filament sensor when upgrading from the MK3/S/+ stock extruder to the Hemera. You will need the 2 magnets, steel ball and sensor. However, this can be used with any printer utilizing a Hemera if you have the necessary parts.
Includes a slot to feed in the stock hemera ptfe tube as well.
Installation Instructions:
Screw down filament sensor to the top mounting hole, in the same way it is on the Mk3 using the original or similarly sized screw. Do not tighten all the way, you need to still have play to be able to install the other parts.
Add your steel ball into the open cavity to the left of the sensor housing. It will not fit unless the sensor is loose.
Insert magnets into the lever and housing. Ensure a tight fit, and that the magnet are opposing when installed. Use hot glue/ super glue as necessary on the lever magnet.(housing magnet will be held into place regardless)
Place lever into its proper cavity, ensuring that
