Hi there

I am currently trying to repair my 1960 Olympia SM4, but have run into an issue with the vibrator fork. It stays in position in black and red mode, but when in stencil mode, the stud that holds it into the colour selector bar (see picture) slips out and the fork drops down to a lower position. It then takes some manoeuvring to get it to slot back into the colour selector bar and back up into position. Should there be a spring behind the vibrator or around the selector to counter this? Very stuck and would greatly appreciate some help!
