SRAM derailleur won’t shift to smallest cog

Hi,
First let me introduce myself. Peter de Vries from the Netherlands. I have a technical issue with my SRAM derailleur.

I have a nearly new derailleur (done only a few hundred kilometers), SRAM X9. It won’t shift to the smallest cog.
I’ve removed the cable to be sure that a tight cable wouldn’t be the issue. Now the derailleur just doesn’t go to its most outer position. I have to help it to get there. As seen in the video: A

h no, I can’t post an url with less than ten posts on my name. Please copy-pasts “watch?v=aqLYsGZILkA” after the normal youtube url.

Without the chain it does go to the most outer position.
What’s the issue? Could it have to to with the fact that the chain on my bike (recumbent) is three times as long as the chain on a normal bike?
