There is a new member here (stejac) who contacted me, as he has a FV1 as well. He lives in Melbourne but work OS but has kindly agreed to measure up the trip feed bracket, when he is back in Aus (February). I really need to know where the pivot point for the lever is, as well as the size and position of the slot where the lever actuates the plunger.
I believe you could get an accurate measurement of the pivot point by printing out the photo of the intact one you posted, then measure the center distances of the pivot point to the mounting holes. With those dimensions in hand, measure the center distances of the mounting holes on the broken one and extrapolate the values for a new one.
