looks to me like your depth stop wouldn't work if you left the pivot out

..and it's been a great help. Now in the second photo the guy's
holding a dumbbell-shaped part called the pivot. In my mill this part had
broken in the middle and lemmetellya getting the innermost piece out was a
real adventure. Anyway I can't figure out what the thing does and I'm
wondering
what won't work if I just reassemble and leave the pivot out.
Explanations appreciated! :-)
