If so, the bad news is, I had 2 of them break when trying to reinstall the red rollers. They just snapped off, I wasn't really putting any pressure on them. Anyway, I called Melco and tried to buy some replacements and was told they are not sold separately. You have to replace the entire thread feed roller assembly. Which includes all the yellow, red, black covers everything, and it must be installed by a tech. Fortunately, my machine was under warranty for the part, but I had to pay for a tech to come out and do the work. In the long run, this wasn't such a bad thing, because I got to meet the tech for my area and he turned out to be an awesome person.
