Power switch substitution for Marantz 2270


I have an opportunity to pick up a nice Marantz 2270 receiver for reasonable price. Problem is it has a broken power switch which I am told it a four pole switch. I currently have a Marantz 2238 receiver with an operational power switch with round switch button cover. Any chance this would work on the 2270?

HifiEngine has the diagrams for both. They have a different number listed, but it doesn't look like a true part number, unless they list parts by each model individually. One is listed as S003, to other S001. They both appear to be a double pole. The 2270 has the second half switching the outlet. The 2238 has the other half switching a B+ voltage for some reason. If it fits physically, and has a high enough amperage rating, it might work. Links to them.

That switch on Fleabay may not be a perfect fit. There is a repair site that shows what appears to be the same universal switch. The hole spacing may be different, and the shaft part that the knob/button slides on also. You may have to do some modifications to make it fit. They have another one for $7.75 that looks like it has a wider screw spacing, but the shaft is thinner (their description) too. Just a heads up. Links if they work.[http://tiber63.com/marantz-2270-power-switch-replacement#!/][http://www.ebay.com/itm/Power-Switch-Marantz-Model-1060-Marantz-2270-and-others-BRAND-NEW-/330676882112?pt=Vintage_Electronics_R2&hash=item4cfde0cac0][http://www.ebay.com/itm/Marantz-Power-Switch-OEM-Quality-It-just-works-/170766737025?pt=Vintage_Electronics_R2&hash=item27c27d9e81]
