Hi, Marvin.

As Tony said, option 31 is not related to the 31 calculators. In fact it is the
multiple pen option for the 4662 - an 8-pen semicircular carousel.

How technical is this manual? I have some manuals, somewhere, I think, but I
need to know the part number for the little gear that bolts onto the motor
spindle in the option 31. (This drives a toothed belt which in turn drives the
carousel).

This gear on mine is in three pieces (metal hub + two parts of plastic gear). I
tried glueing back together, but the thing dropped a tooth on the belt just
often enough to be annoying. I suppose I can try again, reassembling the gear
more carefully, and tensioning the belt more accurately, but I'd like a new gear
anyway...



Philip.
