Facit TP1 paper rests

Would any member be able/willing to upload a photo of how the paper rests attach to the back of the Facit TP1? The paper rests on mine are extremely "floppy" and lacking tension to stay upright and straight.  Thanks in advance!

Here's a close-up photo of the left side (looking at the back of the TP1) paper rest with the erecting spring.

Hope this helps.

Re: Facit TP1 paper rests

Thanks, Phil, for the photo.

My spring is there and looks like yours when the rest is up.  However, the attachment point with the black gromet on the paper rest itself is extremely loose.  The slightest touch will send the top of my paper rest backwards or to each side.  It's not a screw, just a rivet of some kind, so I have no idea how to tighten it.  Also, down lower on the paper rest (when it is upright), there is another hole, at the bottom of the paper rest.  Does yours have anything attaching to this hole?

Thanks.
