Help Converting Linear Motion to Rotary Motion

Hello,

Sorry if this is the wrong place, I don't post here very often. I am currently working on a cad project in which I need a pneumatic cylinder to rotate a piece of metal. However, whenever I go to do the final rotary joint, I get a warning and the joint fails. I only have a little experience with this and have made things like gear trains and basic bar lifts. I should have some pictures attached. Let me know if you need any additional information.

Please attach your assembly model for the best help.

If you do not know how to attach your Fusion 360 model follow these easy steps. Open the model in Fusion 360, select the File menu, then Export and save as a F3D or F3Z file to your hard drive. Then use the Attachments section, of a forum post, to attach it.

I will not be returning the model as it is HUGE and took forever to load. You need to relax the last Revolve joint to give it some alignment play. Edit the joint and make it a Cylindrical.

Please remember to select the "Accept Solution" icon on my post if it solved your issue.
