BigGrin Hi Yatto
I too had the same problem and my own fault for not following the instructions corectly, there is a nut that is preventing the correct movement towards the front.
If you look down from the top and turn the wheels until you see where the parts are meshing together [should be towards the front] you will see that a nut is preventing the correct rotation all that is needed is to reverse it so the nut is on the other side this should cure the problem and don't forget to check both sides. Hope this is of help
Regards

I too had this problem,to make it a bit clearer,it is the connecting rods, the brass screws and bushes that connect everything up,the small ones,(screws) the nut on these should be facing on the outside of the rods. two on each side. that should do it.BigGrin
