loosen the two allen bolts on the back of the swing arm, loosen the bolt between the two allen bolts. use a spanner wrench to rotate the carrier. DO NOT USE A CHISEL AND A HAMMER!!!!!!!!

You don't need to loosen the bolt in the center; it's just a stopper to keep the carrier from rotating full circle.
