Hello Fred
Could you please run through how you unscrew the handle assembly?
I tend to break things by forcing them because of my impatience.
I'm trying to disassemble one right now and it won't budge easily
Thank You

Hi Steve —-

With the rotor attached & the Anti-Reverse lever active —-

Hold the rotor —-

Then just crank the handle backwards —-

Sometimes they can be a little fused or too tight if impacted with crud.

But it will come loose.

If you break anything, don't worry —- I have parts.

Best, Fred
