Hi Reiss
I just bought the unit [L1] second hand in the USA from a friend and figured it would be wise to have a rebuild kit on hand since I am not exactly local to you! The forum recommended the rod as good measure in case It fails during the rebuild should I ever need to. The unit sits in my residents next to my slayer which although makes a superb coffee is prone to be “temperamental”! That said I have never owned a manual lever machine and am looking forward to using this one .should have any this or suggestions they would be well received
Cheers
Brian
