thanks. I cleaned the parts and reassembled the handle. still locked in the side ways position to the left. Mistakenly I cleaned all the parts forgetting which side is up. There was a slight bit of damage where the edges of the square hole rubbed the base of the boxed section of the shaft: thus I put that up. The rub bar sees OK. The bolts holding it on appeared rusted In place. I see no reason to remove it. What next?

Stay safe and strong
