I spoke to Richard at TTS Performance, he says he has seen over half a dozen of these button heads pulled off the lifter piece. It's a common fault.
He said they once fitted a new clutch and fitted the actuator arm in the position where you think it should go but it was too far round and pulled the button head off the lifter piece when they operated the cable.
Apparently the newer models have a mark to show the exactly position to fit the actuator arm onto the lifter shaft, the older models (like mine)do not.

OK here we go...with your help.
Clutch plates and recently acquired lifter piece fastened in. bolts with new spring nipped up snug but not too tight.
The lifted piece has a bit of play and can move in and out about 5mm. Is this correct?
The lifter shaft in in the engine casing with the slot facing the lifter piece and the circular open end facing away.
If I am to rotate the shaft one full revolution 360 degrees clockwise I will have to do this with some grips before bolting on the engine casing. The lifter shaft will be spring loaded trying to return in an anti clockwise direction. Is this correct?
With the button head of the lifter piece fitted into the slot of the lifter shaft this will effectively put constant pressure on the lifter piece because the spring loaded shaft will be trying to rotate counter clockwise and hold out the said lifter piece. If I then fit the actuator arm and pull the clutch lever, the shaft will turn counter-clockwise even further. I am concerned that it will pull off the button head of the lifter piece again.
Am I missing something here?

Hey if you dont like the triumph spring thing. take it out and throw it in the bin ,then go to hardware shop ,and get your self a spring like the one you would find in a pen and install it between the end of the clutch cable and the arm, that is what i use .Warp does as well.I think it is a far better idear.the only thing is you can see it.so what. get a couple so you can decide which one you like. not to soft though.
