I cured mine of this by making the ends of the pinions slightly flared (as suggested by Jobst in the article i linked before). The steel is very hard so i got a set of small diamond files to do it.
The blow-up diagram of the modern version shows a completely different clutch mechanism - hopefully it doesn't suffer from this at all.
