how to put new lead in the clear papermate pencil
1603121
There is a grooved cut-out on the pencil body which sits under the clip part of the pencil. If you pull straight up on the colored top the two pieces should separate and then you drop the leads into the little lead holder thing inside, put the two pieces back together and you are ready to roll! (or should I say, 'write' :-) )

Pull the top of the pencil off, the part that is colored and has the eraser and clip on it. Drop new lead into white tube inside. Put top back on, be sure to line up the clip with the slot. Click the side button to advance the lead.

Just place the lead under the eraser on top after removing the eraser. Once it is placed, click on the side button and the lead will come down. Works great!

the only way to get the lead to go back, would be to hold the eraser down (which was the way to make the lead feed out of the pencil) and push the lead back up into the chamber. Retraction was not a built in option on these.

the whole pencil can be unscrewed into pieces.So I would unscrew the silver tip,then try to push a lead thru tip. Or small sewing needle.the original kerry back in the 80's used to have needle in the eraser cap the newer ones do not.

The eraser comes off, and you put the lead in that end, then replace the eraser

Pull off the silver tip and inside you will see the eraser. Take off the eraser and place the led through the hole. Good luck! We love this pencil.

Those look to be the correct refills. Are you sure you are looking in the right place for the eraser? If you take off the cap and put it on the back for the pencil, then the small silver cap that you use to advance the lead can be removed to reveal the eraser. I hope this helps.

You will also need 2mm lead (there are a variety of hardnesses and colors available), a 2mm lead sharpener (lots of different styles, I reccomend the Kum Automatic Long point two stage sharpener - it sharpens 2mm lead and it has a two stage long point sharpener for pencils - excellent points), and you will need an eraser, paper, ruler, and etc. Most importantly you will need creativity and imagination! Have fun. I bought lots of these (different brands and colors) for a wide variety of lead hardnesses. This one feels more solid in comparison to some other brands but I have not yet come across any that are unsatisfactory.

the other answerers must not have looked very hard, its quite easy to remove the lead if you have a means of removing the eraser if it has been ground down very low, if you cant take it off then take a needle or a paper clip and stab it into the eraser and pull it out, if you dont want there to be a hole visible then simply turn it over so the hole is not visible

I bought mine at an art supply store for over $20 and even though it came in a pretty box it still didn't come with instructions. It's a pencil...not a Ferrari engine. Pull the cap and eraser off to load the leads...not too many....then click it to advance the lead to write. Pull off the cap to operate the eraser. That's about it.

They are refillable, despite what the description and packaging state. First, you remove the eraser, then you turn the nose until a little plastic piece falls out (it will have the last of the lead inside). Pull the spent lead out the plastic piece, put a new lead in, then carefully guide the lead into the spring in the body of the pencil. Turn the nose until the lead starts to feed, then replace the eraser. It might sound complicated, but it takes maybe a minute.

when the lead doesn't come out on the front bottom of the pencil, take the top off, and tip the bottom upside down, and shake it up and down until the lead comes out,or take a pin and insert it in the bottom of the pencil, and very carefully push the the pin in and out, or even sideways until the lead is completely out.

any inexpensive hand sharpener will do. no electric or battery as they heat and soften the lead. I have not resolved the problem of the wood splitting, and seem to experience a lot of lead breakage.

Uh.. same as any mechanical pencil, u push the end of the pen, hold it down, and gently load the new lead into the tip

Take off the eraser and you can put your lead through that way. 1. Remove green eraser cap.2. Remove white eraser.3. Place led in eraser opening.

Yes. You have to press the top of the pencil, as if you wanted to push more lead out, and while holding the top down you can push the lead back into the tip.

yes change readings, no change leads. it holds lead like a regular mechanical pencil
