Ben,

You may have an alignment problem as previously stated. You might also
have a lubrication problem with the spring loaded pin. If I recall
correctly, I took a few pictures of that rigging and they should be on
the rhodes website. I believe that I enlarged the hole so that the pin
had less trouble locking in. I also drilled a hole so that the slide
would lock in the DOWN position as well as the up position.
