Question about Linhof Technika V

Hi there,

I recently acquired a Linhof Technika model V. Everything seems to be in good working order however there is one annoying issue: the front element does not lock onto the base rail tightly enough. When it is stored it locks in perfectly and sits really tight but along the rail, when expanding the bellow, it feels way too loose.

Can anyone provide me with some insights on how to overcome this issue.

Cheers
