Going by memory, I think the cylinder is raised and lowered on hinged arms by a pair of eccentric bearings connected by a cross-rod connected to the vertical gear-rack on the far side. If the cross-rod, or the pin or pin-hole that connect the rod to the eccentric is damaged, then one side won't move properly.
