But it's OK. There's always Youtube to help us.
I can't imagine it being explained any better. If you don't understand what is being done in Bill's photo I don't know what to say. One more time...shift the bike into big/big (carefully in case there isn't enough chain) then put the screwdrivers in the chain as shown in the photo. If there's enough slack to do that you're good to go. I just twist the chain w/ my fingers but if you don't want to get dirty use the 2 small screwdrivers. If you need a video to make that more easily understood then watch a video. At that point it should be crystal clear.
