You might be able to take a crow bar and raise it up enough to take the weight off of the affected roller. Unfortunately most all of them rollers require some ladder work, to adjust... Good Luck!Wink

I took a video and looked it over from my chair and I could see the lock nut on the hanger bolt.  I'll probly set up the scaffolding.

Haven't you got some high school kids that live close by who would like to do you a favor?  It sure wouldn't take them long.  I'd come do it if I was closer!

If I remember right, there is a flat spot, on the threads of the hanger, and a nut below the roller wheels, tighten the nut while holding the bolt...  Don't remember the sizes, unfortunately...Wink

That is the way it works.  I have it shut and with enough effort can slide it open and closed.  After I put more thought into it I think I can pry the door up and put a block under it to where I can adjust it.  I kept it closed all last winter. Mainly because I had lumber stacked in front as well as the saw.
