D-tuna problem! Help me!

[Dale]

Hey guys, I'm new here and need some help. I have an Axis with floyd rose and tried to put an EVH D- tuna on it. Its installed, problem is the d-tuna won't slide all the way up to get me in E. It gets stuck half-way there and is very hard to pull back out to D. I followed the instructions to a "T" but it won't travel properly. I backed the fine tuner all the way out and turned it once so that it barely touches the set screw(the long one included with the D-tuna). Its almost like the D-tuna won't work on the Gotoh tremelo as opposed to a Peavey, but I read about people using these on EB Axis guitars all the time. Does anyone have any suggestions. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I use guitar wax on the top of the barrel to produce a smooth glide. Unfortunately, it has to be reapplied, periodically.

I've had endless trouble with that same problem. I got a tone vise and I like it much better.
