Foot Switch pedal for K-250-4 [message #23249] Fri, 03 July 2015 17:23   slk854 Messages: 192 Registered: January 2015 Senior Member Just out of curiosity how many people here, or does anyone here have one of the foot switches for the K-250-4 ??? I just wonder how hard it would be to replicate one today. With the technology we have these days with CNC I would think if someone put their mind to it they could be duplicated with ease.

Might be a cool project. The big problem is finding one to get all the measurements off of. I am still trying to understand why so many have been lost, but then again there may not have been that many made. I have no idea what the production numbers were on them.

The one in the catalog is not very good for reference purposes. Steve Report message to a moderator

The early versions were the lighted pedals and as far as machining that pedal, would take a lot to make both halves. One half is the cast base and the pedal itself is L shaped looking at the side of pedal that you would step on. The switch is positioned parallel to the floor and the L shape pedal pushes the switch. I have a couple of photo's of both the early lighted two button and 4 button footswitches. Just too old to learn how to post photos on the site. pleat Report message to a moderator
