Paragon tripper OFF broke, can't find replacements anywhere. Is there something that can be substituted, or does ANYONE have any of these somewhere?

Copy following link to identify timer:

Paragon 4000 series uses X2772 tripper
Paragon is no longer making timers except for defrost times.
There is a new line of timers coming from China that looks identical to Paragon 4000, and uses same tripper. As a result this timer design and trippers could be around for years to come.

Replacement timer is Intermatic T104R 240Volt indoor outdoor enclosure, with replacement parts widely available

I can find 1 example TC101 timer, and it looks like cheap knock-off of discontinued Paragon 4000 series that uses X2772 tripper:

It's called a tripper.
Question posted under Paragon 4000 series timer that uses X2772 tripper.
Paragon is no longer making that timer or tripper.
http://waterheatertimer.org/Paragon-timers-and-manuals.html#4000

If different timer is needed, use Intermatic crossover to match timer number:
http://www.intermatic.com/customer%20service/competitive%20cross%20reference.aspx

1) If timer dial is not rotating, then the clock motor has gone bad.
New paragon clock motors are not sold anywhere I know about.
http://waterheatertimer.org/Paragon-timers-and-manuals.html#4000

2) If dial rotates on time, but trippers don't work, then buy new X2772 trippers.

3) Buy new 120Volt 4003-00 timer at Southside for $86:

4) BuildingHVAC sells 4003-00 timer for $56.00

Thank you for including model number.

2) 4001-00 series is heavy duty Nema 1 indoor 40 amp 120Volt mechanical timer with analog dial.
I don't recognize TD-1744-00

I'm not sure what you mean by 'ears'

3) Maybe you mean X2772 trippers?
Trippers are set on dial to control on-off switching.
If trippers are missing, Google search for X2772 tripper and some places still sell them.

4) If another part is missing, you might not be able to find that part, but you can photograph the problem and add a comment to this thread and include photograph so I can look at it.

5) if you have to replace timer, some places still sell Paragon 4001-00, or replacement is Intermatic T101 or T103 timer

Internet search for X2772 tripper shows results, and most are very expensive.
Some Intermatic timers sell for less than being asked for paragon trippers, depending on model.

I don't see the 4001-ov in the Paragon spec sheet
http://waterheatertimer.org/pdf/Paragon-4000-24hr-7000-7day.pdf

To test the general condition of your Paragon timer, use the manual override.
If the manual override works perfectly, then you may need new tripper pins.
The Paragon 4000 series uses X2772 tripper pin.
Google search Paragon X2772 tripper turns up prices of $9 for a pair of trippers

A simple 120V replacement timer is the Intermatic T-101
For outdoor, use the T-101R 'R' for raintight

Lowes usually has the T-101 on the store shelf and they sell the T-101R online

I think the 4001-00 takes the X2772 tripper
If you google Paragon X2772 tripper, there are a few sellers charging from $9-16 for a pair of trippers as if they are made of gold

http://www.nextag.com/tripper-paragon-x2772/stores-html

There should be 2 trippers for each day, the trippers slide on the outside of the dial and would point to the time of day you want your lights on and off. The silver trippers may be gone on that aged time clock, but are easily obtainable.
