My crappy tenor sax had the binding register key problem in a similar mechanism. It also cropped up after playing ok for a few weeks.
I fixed it by removing the pivot screw, pinching very fine sandpaper around it and twisting. Do that enough to just pick up some metal filings on the sandpaper. Then reassemble the mechanism and test.
Repeat until it works.
In my case, it bound up again in a couple of days, and I had to repeat the "treatment." Finally, it worked ok. (but the rest of the keys didn't; and the piece is history).
