8089000-service. You can find it on store.mrprint.com. just put registration device in upper right corner of search. You will also need a dial indicator which you can also find on the store. There are a few different one to choose from.

Just out if curiosity, these tools come with detailed instructions on how to use them in a proper fashion on your press? I can just vaguely recall how it was done during set up of our press, involved as well some rubber bands if I'm not mistaken to hold it in place.

the tool does not come with directions but we can walk someone through the process. This is not highly recommended for a layman to do and in most cases on an M&R press not needed to do unless its very old and abused. The rubber band was to keep tension on the dial indicator so the pressure is always the same. If you apply pressure using your finger it will vary.
