Versa Planetary Issues

Has anyone had issues with the planetary gearboxes binding up? We have an RS775 hooked up to a 1:100 reduction for our winch and it randomly binds up and we are unable to turn it at all. I took it apart and nothing is damaged, but I did notice that everything is fine when the bolts holding the stages together are semi-loose, but once you tighten them it starts to bind again. (They were not even tight...just snug). Any suggestions?
