I wiggled it a bit and i went in but the tension of the rope is a bit loose when the rope is inside and the handle attached to the rope is dangling instead of standing in the hole for the rope.
take it off, carefully not to separate rope spool from housing, blow it out while pulling rope out making sure spool doesn't come out of housing. Spray it with wd-40. re-assemble...
