If you are unable to move the hanging tool up or down using moderate force, DO NOT continue but contact our technical service at once.
NOTE: the balancer locks even if the drum spring is completely discharged. To restore working efficiency, attempt
to charge the spring as outlined in paragraph "Adjusting the balancer". If the balancer does not release, DO NOT do
anything but contact the technical service at once.
