A push-button assembly for controlling an operational function of an apparatus is provided. The assembly includes a chassis with a base portion and a spaced cover portion that together define an internal volume. The cover portion has an opening, and the base portion carries an electrical switch facing that opening. A push-button body is positioned within the volume so that its top portion extends through the opening for user actuation, while its bottom portion engages the switch when the body is pressed toward the base. A frame extends laterally across the volume and holds the push-button body between opposite sides of the chassis. The frame is rotatable about a first axis at one side of the volume, allowing the opposite side of the push-button body to move toward or away from the switch. The push-button body is also rotatable about a second axis, enabling corresponding movement of its other side.
