well i think that's all you do..... shoot some liquid wrench or wd40 in there and let it sit for a little bit

Perhaps your chain is stretched and its already maxed out.

make sure the 4 bolts are pretty loose, loose enough to move with your fingers. then use a screwdriver or something similar to turn the carrier. mine was never that easy either.

I ususally have to use two screwdrivers (one in each slot) and I find it helps if you roll the quad backwards too while doing it.
