I tried the spring from the BBQ but it was too long. Bent the current spring and it now stays on (would previously fall off with a tap), still same play but huge improvement.
Might see if I can get a solid knob with a grub screw to make it feel nice as the switch action itself feels very positive.
Cheers

It looks the same as mine too - very little play when positioned and I don't get the click into place that Yelta does.

Hi artman,Originally posted by artman View PostWill give it a go but there is not much to play with. It sits very loosely in the knob, maybe a piece has snapped off before?
Might go raid the BBQ!!
Cheers
It looks the same on mine also. As Yelta pointed out, there is play on it and I would say that is normal. Unless you are talking some serious wobble action?

Is the whole tab curved? If so, just try to make the whole thing a bit more curved rather than just the small piece at the end. As long as it fits back in the slot it should work fine.
I remember now, I repaired some Roband deep fryers a few days ago and the knob falling off was something I noticed so I just bent the tab, put it back in and it sat much tighter on the shaft.

That's a standard sort of knob, commonly found on commercial kitchen equipment. Sometimes you can remove the metal tab and bend it a little bit to make a sharper angle. Resultingly it should grip onto the switch shaft a bit tighter.

Mine looks exactly the same as yours, when I replace it there is a loud click as it locks into place, once all the way home there is a bit of play, nothing that concerns me though.

Bezzera main switch knob info
The main switch knob in my Bezzera Domus Galatea is a bit wobbly on the shaft. It has a flat metal "spring" inside but I am not sure if a piece is missing / snapped off. I have tried various orientations but can't get it to sit tightly on the shaft. Can someone please let me know how theirs compares to the photo below?
Cheers
