Cleaning MMU2 gears

From time to time, I need to clean the 5 gears that feed the filament inside the MMU2 unit. I use a small steel brush. Is there a way to force the rotation of the step motor? It is really difficult to rotate them manually.

I got lazy and designed this since I had a pile of spare skelestruder brushes...

Hold the middle button.

Normally (e.g., when not printing and there is no filament loading) the right and left buttons move the selector side to side, and the middle button tries to load the selected filament.
