1) Reverse the supplies on U4 (in real circuit reversed supplies will fry the chip.)
2) Add 10k in series with reset switch
3) Swap connections to U4 inputs.
4) Use series shunt switch for reset switch as used in an actual 3458A.
Once done together with swapping in LT1220 for LT1225 rest works as expected and output slews due to gate current of J1 and input bias current of U1
