If it proves impossible to pull the chain through despite the selector being in neutral, it may be
necessary to release the brake first, by turning the brake wheel anti-clockwise. If this does not help,
set the selector to position DOWN, load the chain slightly and jerk the lever in clockwise direction.
Then try again without load but with the selector in neutral.
