Try taking the grease zirk out of the pin in the drive head and let the pressure out. The seal is usually so tight that air or grease can’t escape and it can cause pressure on the cutter bar and guards.
Something else to think about, is the back of the cutter bar worn out and rounded and the new guards have a square edge where the cutter bar rides and causing problems?
