Awning Strut/Damper won't Compress

Is there a secret to compressing an awning damper? We had to loosen ours from the awning for a bolt repair and now it won't compress to be replaced. There is no apparent reason to believe it was damaged.

Thank you in advance for your help.

We use a thing we made at work. You need some leverage. I done know what your frame work looks like but unhook it some where if you can and then hook the shock. We use to pull them to gather and hook them with a long flat strip of metal with a hook at the end. It look kind of dangerous.
