You can slip a plastic or metal sheet between the timer and chain then use the timer to rotate the IP by hand. Not sure if anyone is strong enough to do that. Using grips on the timer could damage the centrifugal advance mechanism. Alternatively, remove the timer and use very well padded grips to turn the IP splines. I'll tack JonL's paperweight warning here.
Either way there could be some trial and error because the tensioner has to be out to gain enough slack to lift the chain off the timer.
