Heidelberg QM46 Circumferential Register Jammed

I've managed to jam the registration shift on PU2 of the QM46 - could anyone advise on a way to free it up?

I've had an engineer take a look but he's not that experienced on the QM, said he can't see any way to fix it without removing the whole head (big job he wouldn't take on!) but that maybe someone else could advise on an easier way.

Can anyone help?

Can you be a little more descriptive ? How is it jammed ? Foreign object ? Exceeded adjustment limit ?
 
It's exceed the limit - I hadn't used it in a while and think it had been left at full adjustment...I then tried to adjust a bit more!

I think I might have freed it now but it's looking like the push gear isn't connecting with the upper gear.
