    Relax, it isn’t as bad as it seems. Completely remove the screw, then the arc-shaped friction plate. Now put in new fiber friction pads, one below and one above the arc as you do. Reinstall the screw and metal washer. The problem is the fiber pads are worn out or missing, and the nut that the screw goes into is lifting out of the pocket that holds it.

    Written from memory, without a motor in front of me.
