Sorry, that one's gonna have to go back to the factory to be repaired. Factory phone number is 915-633-8354, ask for Fisher customer service. If there's any confusion about just what needs to be fixed, just tell the person handling the call that you've posted a photo on the Findmall F-series forum, they can probably be looking at the photo in less than 60 seconds.

this will be a little hard to do i am from maribor, slovenia they asked me for SN of my f75 so i just gave them on photo hardly waiting for answer from them. i hope they will be so cool and send me this broken part...

That part of the assembly is complicated involving several parts and also wiring. Most people lack the skills to fix a thing like that even if you give them a replacement for the broken part. After having looked at it carefully, do you think you have it figured out how to disassemble it in order to replace the part, and then to reassemble it? The factory may be willing to send you the part, but I'm pretty sure they aren't going to provide instructions on how to do the repair.

This is not a fix you should attempt. You could end up really messing it up. Send it in!

That patent has already been patented here in WV, that's how we fix 90% of our broken stuff.

Duct tape, the greatest invention since sliced bread. Bravo !

And done without the use of baling wire! I'm impressed! Congratulations, gjajamb!

Back in the 1980's there was a metal detector (I think Garrett, but maybe Compass?) that used a brace reinforced handle arrangement something like that.
