Holden Astra 2002: Convertible roof gets stuck while closing

The right-hand upper hydraulic ram started to leak on my 2002 Holden Astra convertible. I replaced the leaking ram and the lines going to it, and while the roof now opens without any issue it gets stuck half way through closing. Any ideas on what the issue may be?

It could be a question of adjustment of the roof mechanism. I would take it back and have the roof alignment checked and adjusted if needed.
