Step 4Turn the Rear Wheel Around
Then I took the rear wheel off, turned it around, and put it back on so the sprocket is on the same side as the front chainwheel.
There's a lever extending from the side of a bendix hub.
The lever needs to be restrained for the brakes to work properly.
If it just uses a sheetmetal band to attach it to a frame tube, shift that over to the new side.
Sometimes it's attached to a tab on the frame.
If so you can hoseclamp it to the frame in the new position or scavenge the sheetmetal band from a different bike.
Next I had to use a chain breaker tool to take the chain off and put it back on on the new side.
Park Tool and Sheldon Brown are good sources of info on such bicycle tech and craft
