Not a great design, and I'll bet the pinched rod, or axle, is hanging up on the buckle frame where it is swaged down. If so…..Sitting here trying to envision how to fix that, I'm scratching my head.
an attempt to widen the buckle frame with a flat blade screwdriver might do it, one has t be careful if it is a plastic roller and you wedge the blade between the end of the roller and a frame side. Never had this issue myself, but earlier ones with the brass roller would get corrosion on the roller pin.
