This thread is worthless without pics. I don't have the 1300 but if we had a pic we might be able to come up with something.

Use a thin steel tube over the largest diameter (diagonal) and make 4 flats by vise ! Drill small hole in tube insert a pin and then you have a key !

I've had somewhat the same issue with my 855. The shaft thing the key goes on has a small wire like end with a spring over it. It has come out of the winding mechanism and the wire like end has broken off. I used a small drill bit (1/32) and drilled it out some then I JB welded a piece of stiff wire in it and reassembled the thing. Only problem I have right now is it popped back out. I have to take it apart again to fix it but until I get the gumption to do it I use my finger to wind it and I also have a wood ick to jam it so it won't unroll itself especially when I have it set for dragline work. No NZG does not have the spare key shaft which is sad but it will create a business for someone, now if I only had a Micro Lathe like I want  !!
Dain I'm a kid at heart, so I will play with any model construction vehicle from 1:87 scale to 1:1 scale!!!! Age is a state of time NOT a state of mind!!

I got some shots of the pin shaft part that breaks on the NZG cranes for anyone who wonders what they are. This is the "exploded" view, the shaft is the part that breaks on the small end opposite where the "key" fits on. In this first picture I have drilled out the broken end (very hard and frustrating) by hand and fit a piece of wire in it and JB Weld was used to secure it.  This is how it is supposed to go together in the crane.  NZG will not replace the shaft for some reason and it is basically the only part that fails in the cranes. If I had a micro lathe I would see about making some to sell as it is not all that hard to design a new one. Hoe this helps some who are wondering what is trying to be described.

Thanks Rowan, I figured I'd post the pics to show exactly what was being described.
In these pics the shaft has been drilled and a wire piece was put in place with the 2 part JB Weld epoxy stuff. I just have to pull the crane apart one of these days and repair it. This is off the front winch which is used for the fair lead to the dragline bucket. The 2nd winch also needs repair as it has started to be fiddly.
My significant other has the Liebherr HS855 in Busker colors and when I rewound the winches with Musky Master the shafts on it messed up like on my 855.
I just wish I had the equipment to machine a better shaft part to sell/give to others.
