Perhaps the angle of the rear slider Tee rail is too severe requiring the slider block to move too vertical from the closed position. My 6A has a little bit of the problem. I apply Boelube to the rail occasionally to ease the sticking.

I am having difficulty with the canopy on my 9A. What happens is that it is essentially impossible to start it sliding from the closed position.
I thought it was the rear pin blocks that were binding, but it does the same thing with them completely removed.
If I am inside, I can get it started by slightly pushing up on the rear. From the outside, the only way is to pull up on the rear. Since the canopy rear skirts are not yet installed that is now possible, but when they are installed it will be impossible. Once I get it to move about 1/2 - 1 inch, then it moves back easily.
I have checked everything I can think of and everything seems to be spot on, but I am obviously missing something.
Has anyone run into this problem? Does anyone have suggestions as to what I should look for?
