Thanks Steven - I only needed to clean the inside of the glass on my Epson 3170 (it had a slightly cloudy deposit on the inside surface) but your video showed me how to open it up. Useful.
Hi mine had the exact same issue. However, instead of screwing the holes through the metal, which fixates the adjuster distance and does not allow the spring to keep the band tightened. Instead, I screwed two holes just beside the adjuster metal plate, and then I used two flat countersunk head screws. I did not tighten them a lot, so allowing the adjuster to slide with the spring. But your tip, gave me the clue.😊
