old ikegai lathe 2011?

Hi all, I need your help, we have a very old IKEAGI lathe, auto feed is not working correctly, it would work then stop by itself. We don't have any repair manuals, my boss said see what you can do. So I started to disassemble the cover where the shifter for the auto feed is. First I removed the cap, then I removed the handle or shifter. It was all dirty inside and I felt something jumped out I did not see what it was but I assume that it was two small steel balls because I see two small spring housings so I believe that on top of the each spring was small steel ball. Am I right or no? Also is there any place where I can see some exploded views?

Ikeagi 2011 is what is written on the bottom right of the machine.

    There are parts/repair manuals available (see link). They may cost more than a visit from a repair tech, but it would probably benefit in the long run to have them on hand. At the very least, it would help operators to use the lathe to its full capability.
