No, I hadn't bent it or anything. I'm trying to be very careful and gentle when working on these things ;-) But it might seems like I had tightened this little "black knot" (see attachment) that locks the pinch roller on to the shaft just a little bit too hard, simply by pushing it a little bit too far down on the axl.
