Lost extruder grub screw

Hello,

i don't know how it happened but MK3 stopped extruding, so i looked inside extruder gears and noticed that the grub screw is missing. Can anyone tell me what size it is so i can buy a new one? They dont have it in spare parts nor on prusa e-shop unfortunately.

Also i wonder where it could go, because it was not inside extruder gears....

 

Thank you very much

There should have been one in the spares, I know I have one or two.

For the price it's probably better to just get a new extruder gear; most places that deal in those kinds of specialties don't sell them at prices intended for quantities of one.

You could try asking support - perhaps they can toss one in for you if you order something else from the shop.
