Summary:
A friend had this as a pretty decoration on his garage wall for a few years, so I offered to try to fix it.

I read that these tend to have a lot of switch failures, and figured it'd be pretty straightforward. It was bit more work than I expected, partially my own fault.

Considered replacing the defective main power button with a beefy waterproof one ... 🤷
The switch I broke is a Jiaben FA7-6/1-E 6(6)A 250v.

Parts Warehouse is great for the exploded view and for any replacements:

Looks like it comes as a set. Not sure if the second one is the right type for the button, we'll see when it comes:
Homelite/Ridgid/Ryobi Handle Switch Kit W/ 2 Switches #HM-120723001

For now, the faulty switch is bypassed, and I managed to fabricate a couple tiny springs to repair the actuator I broke.

Whatever, it works!
