Extruder knob hits cable clamp and gets broken off

More of a nuisance than anything else, but my SV08 manual adjust knob hits the cable clamp and gets snapped off. I’ve printed the one that came in the Sovol .STEP file, and even eventually beefed it up.

Has anyone else had this problem, and what was their solution?

Thanks!

John,
Do you mean the wheel on the back of the extruder ?
and which cable clamp do you mean exactly ? because I haven’t heard about this problem before

Yup. And the clamp that mounts to the 2020 extrusion that anchors the cable that goes to the toolhead.

It happened again tonight. :slight_smile:

But the model that it was printing at the time shouldn’t have taken the toolhead anywhere near the clamp/mount. :thinking:

And my SV08 doesn’t have a cable chain (it’s original and has no enclosure).

Thanks!

John

My extruder assembly is unable to hit that cable clamp, so my guess is that something isn’t assembled the right way.
