Default camshaft stuck valve adjustment??

im trying to do a valve adjustment for my d16z6 head. im using this guide. http://www.lvracingscene.com/forum/s...lve-Adjustment

so i set the valves when its on TDC, then spin it 360 and set the other valves, my camshaft wont spin anymore. what could be the problem?? its super stuck when ever i try to spin it back to tdc.

Loosen all the valves and do it again.
