Release Lever Pin/Shaft - #...

Product details
The release lever pin and shaft for the Hoover 1100, part 012102. It is the pivot the handle release lever turns on, a small piece that the whole handle mechanism depends on.
When the pin wears or bends, the lever no longer swings cleanly on it. The handle becomes stiff to unlock, or the release slips and lets go halfway, and reclining the machine turns into a two-handed job. Because the fault sits in the pivot rather than the lever, replacing the lever on its own does not fix it.
A new pin and shaft gives the lever a true, solid center to turn on. Look at the lever's own bearing surface while the pin is out, since a pivot that has been running rough will have worn the lever seat as well. Check the part against your machine before ordering.
