Prevent grommet strip pull-out

When stringing the last mains and the grommet tries to pull out, I have found an easy way to keep it in place. Normally you would pull the string parallel with the hole. Instead, try turning the frame so that the pulled string is almost parallel to the handle. Use the brake and lock it into place. Now, the tensioned string will be applying side force against the grommet, which helps hold it in place.
