Clean the splines on the shaft thoroughly with a pin, getting out all
the extra metal.  Then bolt the arm back on, turning through firm
resistance as the shaft splines cut mating splines in the arm.  When
the bolt is suddenly tight, you've finished.  If the bolt goes tight
without cutting splines, then you've used up that arm and need another one.
