Index mechanism jammed

My square deal has jammed up. It will not go up are down. On closer inspection i can see from the side that the whole index mechanism is out of position. How do i get it apart? Help

To remove the square shaft assembly from your Square Deal, proceed as follows:
Detach the loaded cartridge chute from the right side of the frame.
Detach the primer feed assembly from the front of the frame.
Detach both link arms from either side of the frame.
Remove the camming bolt, located in the rear of the frame, about one inch below the mounting flange. If your machine is bolted directly to the bench, you must remove your machine from the bench first to be able to access this bolt.
When reassembling, first reinstall the square shaft assembly, then reattach the link arms. Now pull the handle down, so the shaft goes up, in order to reinstall the camming bolt. Regrease the smooth surface of the camming bolt before reinstalling.
