Roof operated but needs to be helped

Noticed every so often my roof needs a little help to get off it's mount when putting it down. Everything else works, and I've relocated the motor.

It just needs a little knock to almost release the clamps that hold it down when it's up, then it carries on fine. It will only need this 1 our of 5 times and goes back up with no issue.

Could be an alignment thing? Or maybe need some lube for the clamps to release easier? TIA
 
The anchor points on the windscreen frame have rollers in them, so that the hooks can move out without catching. Could well be that the rollers are sticking. Squirt of Plusgas or similar to clean out any muck, then a touch of light oil, like 3-in-1 or similar so the rollers move freely.
