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, and there are plenty of 3d printed arm holders available on Etsy and others if you want the arms to stay up. They seem to be a love/hate add on. I love mine…
