Ours doesn't move either.. and we've been playing on it with last years robots and walking back and forth, etc...
I would double check the width between your pivot brackets (we have 6-7/16" from outside to outside side of the angle iron bracket).. and ensure that you have the correct thickness angle on the piece of wood (which runs along the floor and the bridge sits on).. and also that you have the small angle on that board that sticks up on each side to keep the bridge from moving side to side (since it should only move up and down)..
that's my only advice.. double.. triple.. quadruple check the prints.. ours was a bit screwed up until the Assabet folks helped steered us to the right dimensions and etc..
