(I think you have some experience there...)
You will want some sort of motor drive for the fuser.
(although it works fine to directly turn it slowly by hand.).
I have set up the original motor, with heavy gearing...
Until now i was to lazy to build the enclosure for the PSU and motor
controller, so i am still turning the motor by hand (crank).....
If with your fuser the lamp is dead it is a bad thing.
But if only the teflon has a few scratches i assume it does not matter
in this application.
