Certainly my inclination, but it appears to do so requires a fair amount of disassembling the motor, and without a manual or maybe even access to some parts, it may be risky. I have a small history of making things worse by trying to fix them!

On another note, it appears that the lock is released when in forward as a "safety" mechanism to allow the motor to bump up if hitting a log or something and that it's only job is to keep the motor from riding up in reverse.
