When I tried to turn the lens to the closer range, the lens wouldn't go and I wasn't going to apply any more torque. I remember seeing somewhere a mention that the DR is not compatible. My theory is that the focus actuator may have some difference in shape from the "old" ones, and the shape difference is why the DR can't engage when the lens is set to the closer range.
