La Marzocco Manual Paddle Lever Extension - New Version Installed on all Strada EP machines from serial ST003033 onward (December 2016+), this redesigned lever extension improves paddle rigidity by removing the old cut-out, and pairs with a new wider-slot ring (MZ_C106802). Because the earlier lever (C.1.125) is no longer available, replacing the lever on an older Strada EP now requires both parts together. Since the new lever is slightly longer, La Marzocco recommends replacing it on all groups at once to maintain symmetry. This is a special order item shipped directly from the manufacturer separately from the rest of your order: in-stock units ship fast, while out-of-stock units typically require 1-2 weeks for processing before shipping. SPECIFICATIONS: Dimensions: 91mm length x 15mm width x 3mm thickness COMPATIBILITY: Fits: La Marzocco Strada EP, from serial ST003033 (Dec. 2016) onward Replaces: Discontinued lever C.1.125 (requires pairing with ring MZ_C106802 when retrofitting older units) Works with: New wider-slot ring (MZ_C106802) INSTALLATION: Advanced difficulty, group mechanism disassembly. We recommend a qualified technician, and replacing all groups together for symmetry.
