Not a gun, but might be similar - handcuff ratchet stiff - "trigger job"?

I have a set of peerless 700 handcuffs which I bought new. The ratchet mechanism is extremely stiff. Using them for training is difficult because the amount of pressure required to get the cuffs on ends up hurting my training partners - we're talking big bruises on the bone just to get the cuffs on.

Does anyone know how to deal with this? I have read somewhere on the internet that handcuffs can be given the same treatment as a firearm trigger but I've never done a trigger job so I'm not sure what's involved precisely, just how much material are you supposed to remove etc..
