I have a Singer MSP 7 ironing press and can no longer open the top. Has anyone had this experience and what was the solution or cause?

On the Singer website, they have a troubleshooting guide they have posted online. One of the questions they gave the answer to was the top will no longer open. Here is their response to your problem and this is what they said to do "Locking knob is in locked position - turn locking knob to open. Locking lever stiff - Slightly move the handle up and down while turning the locking lever." Here is the link and the answers to how to repair this unit that Singer has posted. www.singermachines.co.uk/
The pressing handle is locked in position and the locking switch moves freely without seeming to do anything - could this be the problem? The Pressing handle has always been stiff to open since new.
It appears that the locking handle release latch is not moving freely. You can try and get a small knife or screwdriver in there to see if you can pop the release on this piece. If you can do this then you can try and put a little oil on the latch to see if it will move freely again.
