Thank you for an easy to understand video. I hope to reference it in the future. I have two series 1 machines, a 1972 and 1974. I have been unable to find the tool you are using. The major Pavoni specialty shops including Coffee-Sensor, Orphan Espresso and Stefano's Espresso care only have sleeve removal tools for 1970 and before and for post millennial machines. Can you advise?
lol i wish i saw this method before I tried to remove the stupid plastic sleeve out of my brand new machine with the tool using only hand pressure. ended up chipping the plastic notches and having to break out the sleeve with a chisel to replace with the metal piece
