What am I doing wrong on my Miter saw?

I have a Ryobi TSS102L miter saw, and when I try to get into the the bevel position, and it wont budge left or right.  From what I gathered, I am supposed to put the saw upright, lock it in place, and then loosen the bevel knob in the back, and then position the level to the left for a bevel cut.  What am I doing wrong ? Please advise!

 

Thanks!

Weird because if you loosen the knob on the back of the saw it should move left or right.  I will have to take a look at one and see what can be stopping it from moving freely.
