I am having an issue with my 1965 ags
It has stopped going up and down, unless I tighten the locking wheel
and then it is obviously difficult to turn the main wheel

any ideas please?

I'm not familiar with the machine but one glance at the exploding diagram indicates that both pins are crucial in the transmission of effort from the hand wheel to the worm wheel.
It is possible that the bearings have collapsed and the gear is only in mesh when the braking mechanism is tightened. Just looking inside whilst operating the mechanism should make it obvious what has gone wrong.
Good Luck
