Problem with Slingerland Zoomatic Strainer

[PWindows878]

Hi everyone, I have a 70's era Zoomatic Strainer that is missing that leathery type material that is usually behind the knob of the strainer. Needless to say the knob is obviously very loose. Is there anything I can use or buy that can repair this problem? I could look for another Zoomatic, but this one just needs that extra component, and it will work fine. Thanks.

Hi David, Thanks for the response back, but I have already looked at this info about the spring. The problem I have is on the front end of the strainer and not the back. In other words, that leather type piece between the knob and the washer is gone. There is too much space between the front knob and the actual strainer. Any info would help. Thanks again.
