@lfdubois  I found this group very useful, all sorts of info in the files.

Linky

It took me about two or three hours of oiling/heating/gently wiggling to free mine off!  I think I may have also used some isopropanol (rubbing alcohol) to help dissolve the old grease.

The reverse button is designed to lock in for permanent reverse if you need it. You press it in and slightly down.
To release it, the opposite; press it in and up.
I hope that's been the problem, 'cos it's a simple fix - in fact no fix at all  :)
Too many machines...
