It's been a while since hitting the forum, but I have been having lots of fun and learning a great deal as I put my old 7753 through its paces clearing snow and generally helping with property tasks on the homestead. But the other night the thumb rocker switch on the RH steering lever fell out--of course when I was halfway done with the snow clearing. I found the button and after letting it warm up over night in the shop, was able to get it working again, held together with duct tape, bailing wire, and Goop glue. I think it might even get me through the winter... But my question: Is it possible to replace the rocker switch without replacing the entire steering lever? I.e., can the top of the handle be dismantled and the switch parts accessed? If not, is there a source for a salvaged steering lever? It seems a shame to replace the entire lever when it is only the rocker switch that is broken... As always, grateful for the wisdom in the vintage Bob Cat community...
