Why is there a round looking thingy do on the needle? What purpose does it serve? My other many kids are just a straight shaft. It's just supposed to protect your hand or something?

After you thread the plug into the needle and insert it into the hole in the tire about half way, you push down on the round thing and push it against the tire and plug you just put in (the round thing moves up and down on the needle). Then, you slowly pull the needle out while holding the round thing. It keeps the plug from pulling back out of the hole while you are pulling out the needle. Cheaper versions of these kits don't have these round things and often times the plug pulls part way back out while trying to remove the needle. Having it on this one makes it nice. Hope this helps.

My only guess would be to protect your hands so they don't shash into the tire. Or to prevent you from going to deep and hitting the rim.

I believe it is to keep you from pushing the plug in too far. It is removable if you dont want to use it.

Joseph Question when the blades are fully locked onto the shaft, the blades still rattle?? Sounds like there's a gap most likely due to the head not fully screwed onto the shaft, did you receive the blade tool with your package use it to apply the broad head. If no examine the clip make sure it is in place between the head and shaft, Mine do not slip nor raddle Keep me posted I'm interested in what is creating the bouncing blades. TY

Hey David- I'll tell you what I think the intention was for having actually 2 valves (yep, if the one at the base is closed, the one near the outlet has no effect)- the one at the base is kind of a safety- when not in use, it's just an extra protection in case the end one is accidentally hit or if somehow the swing sections start leaking (BTW, I've had mine for a couple of years now & no leaks) and also protects in case the outlet handle is accidentally opened when maneuvering the outlet into position but not being as careful as necessary to make sure the valve stays closed until you get there (I've had my hand positioned improperly in the valve area and started the flow before I intended to a couple of times early on)...so, simply said, in my opinion, it's just a safety.

I don't know since I only use it with the spacers. If you are not using the spacers, you can just inject. The spacers hide the needle.

cord swivel? Is that supposed to be good or bad? Anyhow, I just love my set of needles and have used them every day since I bought them. No problems whatsoever!

I hold mine overhand too and it works well. I crochet tightly and hold the hook tightly and it helped with the pain from holding the hook so hard. It's a larger surface in your hand and I think it keeps your hand in a more natural position.

Is it making a noise? Does it still sew? I have had it do this when a needle was not put in as far up as it will go or the needle is slightly bent. Also once it did this and the shuttle cock was scratched badly and had to be replaced. Please let me know if any of this helps. Other wise I would call Brother directly.

You use multiple needles to knit round things in one piece without a seam. It is called "knitting in the round." They are used for the same purpose as attached needles, neither is better, it is just a personal preference. I prefer to use multiple needles for easier storage, but everyone is different.

When you hit the target it falls. The string on it is very long so you can try further away. You pull the string and the target pops back into place. It has the smaller area holes to add if you want more difficulty. It is air gun, so it shouldn't puncture. It's just whether or not you hit it the target to drop it.

As stated by MLEC, the blade does have a round in the center for the shaft. That is just, one, bad photo. I have ordered many from Amazon. The other holes at both ends are just wear indicators. The newer hardened blades are the bomb.

I think it means there is no needle attached. If you have an indwelling IV catheter (picc line, port) they are usually set up to handle the luer lock syringes and do not need a needle. If you have a question, ask your Dr. or their nurse.

I place it around my toddlers ankle when she is sleeping and place a sock over it. Anything around her neck while she is sleeping still makes me nervous. Otherwise it is always around her neck.

The nailer doesn't have the conventional safety tip like you see on other nailers and this is because you typically need to get the pins in places where you don't want to show any nail holes. I'm assuming the reason for the double safety is because the pins don't have head and the head may provide some type of catch on a standard nailer for the safety to latch on to.

Not sure. I have only used the straight one . Guess it's for when you can't get to the back of the material so the curved needle brings the thread back to the front for locking instead of the back.

I think they give you the round-y thing that you see in the picture, but honestly, I never used that attachment. Not even sure what it's for!

I would definitely be upset and contact the seller as well!! I don't know if the needles would become dull but I would be concerned that some had become bent. I bent needle can cause damage to your skin. I'm hoping it came in the sterilized package?

I would return it for a replacement if you have any concerns with the product. Mine was stuck for a moment at the "zero" mark, but using it for a while eventually got it to "unstick". I don't think my situation was the same as yours though, because I think my issue was simply the needle just not responding. I have heard of the needle getting stuck. Google a solution, or return for a replacement. Hope that helps.
