I just use thick CA. Apply to felt or moulding (whichever can be reached), give a squirt of accelerator, clamp with fingers for just a few seconds and you are done. I've serviced a couple of these a year or two later and all is well. Be aware that there might be more that have separated on the bottom part of the hammer - they can't be seen unless you look for them. Also be aware that if there are a few that have let go, chances are their neighbors are ready to let go also.
