The assembly further comprises a counter clicker (8) which is configured to interact with the clicker member (2) to form a clicker mechanism, and a spring element (3) arranged between the clicker member (2) and the clutch member (1), the spring element (3) being arranged to move the clutch member (1) towards the first position and away from the clicker member (2) away from each other. The assembly (100) is further configured such that the clutch member (1) is axially movable with respect to the housing between a first position and a second position different from the first position, wherein, when the clutch member (1) is rotated in the first position with respect to the clicker member (2), the counter clicker (8) rotates with respect to the clicker member (2) and, when the clutch member (1) is in the second position, a rotation of the clutch member (1) with respect to the clicker member (2) is prevented.
