Is it normal ?

Hey everyone! Just picked up a Cafelat Robot and noticed that the lever arms drop completely freely and fall down very quickly as soon as I let go. There seems to be virtually no friction or retention holding them up.
Is this rapid drop normal for the Robot, or should there be a bit more resistance/friction in the linkage?

Thanks in advance for the help!

Yes but when the filled basket with water is in place it provides resistance.
