For the (hopefully) small crowd who uses Mazzer Robur at home and has removed the hopper.
I use a Robur-E at the house and removed the hopper for daily personal use. When removing the hopper, I broke the tabs holding it in place as it seemed there was no removing it without breaking them. I tried for hours, but gave up. The tabs breaking was not that big a of a deal, but it
