Help with constraints for Drag Components

Rocking+Mechanism+2.JPGRocking+Mechanism.JPG

I need help with Drag Components.

The objective is to obtain vertical motion by a slot in an oscillating lever arm.

I have constrained the lever arm using pin constraints and the vertical rod using the slot constraint, however, when constraining the rod to the guide the mechanism locks.

I have tried the other constraints and have not found any that work. Please help me on this issue.

You might have a circular reference going for constraining the piston.
