I have had trouble selecting the quill down feed with the 3 position selector since I bought this mill a few years ago. I pulled the selector cover off this afternoon and discovered that the key had shifted down in the keyway. I pushed it back up with a punch and a light tap with a hammer and then tried to seat it in the keyway but it is still loose and fell right back down when I put it together.
Any suggestions for keeping the key in the keyway that doesn't involve a teardown and a new key? I tried to slide the key out while holding the gear set at the top but no go.
