how to put re-coil back together?

what is the easiest way to put this back together without getting your fingers or limbs sheered off by wound spring

Recoil the wheel and lock it down with some needle nose vice grips ...install rope and let grips loose being carefull and let the recoil pull rope back in making sure its recoiled enough to pull all rope in .....tricky sometimes
