It's not for the timid..

You need to unfold them from the back-side, then bend them back in place...

Yup I just did it to my 9315, its really not that bad but it is a bit nerve racking, as if you bend it too much it can put a bend on the outer part of the link. If your too nervous to do it just pay a professional to take care it
