[GreenKeys] 15RO Running open

If anyone is interested, I have pinned down the problem with my new toy.
The stop lever is so tight on its bearing that it will not move into
position
to catch the stop arm on the selector cam. I can barely move it with a
screwdriver tip. If I push the stop lever into place the machine stops
running open.
If I manually pop the trip latch the selector still won't turn - stop lever
is too tight
to move out of the way.
My guess is I need to remove the stop lever, clean out the bearing and
re-oil it.
Then it looks like the trip off eccentric screw might need a slight
adjustment
Some judicious oiling of the swords got them working. Now as the machine is
running open, the selector cam ripples through the swords as it should.
If I can get this problem sorted out, I can move on and see what the next
problem may be.
