Default Re: Switch is very hard to turn .Trio 9R 59D.

Some switches operate the plate spring of their detent as a see-saw balance-beam balancing the force between two detent balls on opposite sides. Taking one ball out doesn't work on these, the whole thing goes slack or falls apart, but slightly smaller balls is an option.
