Update: ferrule was found!
I just got my 770 and have been setting it up. All has gone very smoothly (great quality!) until just now, the smallest little part has me held up... I went to un-bag the oil tube for installation in the manual pump and heard a clink clink as the nut and little metal cap went flying off the tube. It appears that someone forgot to install the ferrule! Any ideas on how to proceed this weekend? I'm sure Tormach will help me get something going in a few days but until then, I'm held up for a little brass ferrule. Even if I had one on hand I'm not sure how I would swage it onto the little 4mm tube. Thanks for any ideas! -Keith
