I posted previously about VBA to do the same thing however; i found out i couldn't use VBA in my work files.

I found a way to use power query to create a table with filters. It works but i am unsure how to use the filter to count the rows, so only 60 are per page. Dropbox
 

Excel Facts

Why does 9 mean SUM in SUBTOTAL?
It is because Sum is the 9th alphabetically in Average, Count, CountA, Max, Min, Product, StDev.S, StDev.P, Sum, VAR.S, VAR.P.
You may use helper column with your FIND column divided by 60 and rounded down . (If your real FING is not starting from 1 you may add index columnand use it instead.
then filter just one page number and delete no-longer needed page column. So the code would be something like:

Power Query:
    RoundDown = Table.AddColumn(PreviousStep, "Page", each Number.RoundDown([FIND]/60)),
    FilterOnePage = Table.SelectRows(RoundDown, each ([Page] = 0)),
    DeleteHelperColumn = Table.RemoveColumns(FilterOnePage,{"Page"})

and of course then you may edit FilterOnePage step (click on a small gear next to it and select next page number, or simply change this number in formula bar)
