Filament Sensor small PTFE tube came out.. how to return it? (Prusa MINI+)  

RE:

At my sensor,

can the tube 4.6 mm to be pushed in.

Do not do this using pliers,

but with a piece of sand paper

that you wrap around the tube in such

a way to have more grip on the tube.

Just press it in gently.  I have removed it from most of mine.  It has not changed its performance for me.

In the morning when unloading a filament (that had a small 'clog' in its end) , the small PTFE tube on the filament sensor came out. (2cm PTFE tube)

1. How to insert it back to the sensor? (I guess it serves as a filament guide)
2. If pressing the small tube in the orifice is enough, how deep to insert it?

Thanks in advance.

I've had the tubes come out so many times, I have about altogether just forgotten about the filament sensor. It's been more trouble than it's worth for me. (Same with the satin sheet I bought. I've used it twice and the trouble hasn't been worth it. The Satin sheets are 1/2 the thickness of the steel sheet so everything has to be set up for that sheet as well, and I see no major differences to keep swapping them out for no reason. Others may have a different experience, but that's been mine)
