    • Insert your blackstick and try to slide it from the one side to the other. At some point you can hear the "click" sound. It's really fragile so be careful. Don't put the blackstick too much inside because you might damage other parts. Try to be as gentle as you can. If you don't feel it, take your time. It's better if you do a break.
