[C320-list] new album on web site

Scott,
We found that you don't have to lift the clutch all the way back. Lift it
just far enough to feed the line thru.

Thanks Scott - I will stick to reeving splices and messenger lines.

If you use this method you have to be VERY careful when you lift the
cam.  I've found that if you lift it too far, it's possible that
something slips inside the unit into a new unorthodox position that
prevents you from closing the lever again.  This has happened to me
several times, but not recently and so I can't recall exactly what
happened.  But when it happened I had to fiddle with the thing for more
than an hour before I got it back into the normal position.
