Where is the plastic strip that I am to remove. Have examined the ball and find nothing and of course it doesn't work even giving it a hard rap or tw

There is a tiny slot between the batteries (two tiny screws show) on the opposite side from the speaker. If you have a small enough screw driver, you could open it and see what the trouble is or just return it for another one. We love ours.

sorry for delay on your response. This ball is a strange toy the first one broke when it fell of my bed onto the hard wood floor and now the second one does work when my dog starts to chew on it or when you walk by it. You may have a dud return it and get a new one.

Mine had a plastic pull out tab. Have you tried opening it to see if the tab is there but just got stuck inside? If there's no tab I'd say this is maybe one that was returned.

Have no idea...A cheap game was sent instead...from Sports Craft! I am waiting to hear back from the seller...Good Luck!

They sell replacement velcro strips on their website. 3 for $2.50. Go to the search function and type in velcro. It will be the last result. I'm having the same issue as you.

I also had a cracked plastic top but it occurred from me trying to jam it on over something...my fault. I tried to seal it up and then tried to tape it but with no luck. I threw that one away.

I just saw the other responses. Mine has a hole with a plastic piece that fits in if not using one. I just got mine a few weeks ago.

Once you've removed the rubber shield, take a paper clip apart and use the point of it to push on different spots on the ball retainer from the inside out. The ball retainer is black and should come out relatively easily. It's in there snugly of course but pops out without too much force. Be careful once you get the ball retainer a little loose not to push it out too quickly because the balls will fly out of it and you risk losing them. Check cleaning instructions on the bones Swiss website it will give you step by step instructions. Look at #2 cage removal. I've done this a few times without too much trouble. http://bonesbearings.com/support/maintenance/ Once you've removed the rubber shield, take a paper clip apart and use the point of it to push on different spots on the ball retainer from the inside out.

Replace it through the tip - plastic end first, while holding in the other end. It should slide right in.

Darryl, how did you knocked out the plastic insert out of the seat tube!?? I'm having a really hard time with that. Thank you!.

Does it still clip? I haven't encountered that problem.Maybe take a picture and send it to Eddie Bauer and see if they can send you a new part.

It has threads inside the ball itself and inside the plastic adapters. My adapters didn't fit the spline so I just wrapped a good amount of gorilla tap and screwed the ball down on top of it. Been holding good for months now

Try using thin metal rod to insert between the plastic and pole. Push and pull as if peeling the skin of something. It will detach the pole from plastic. It worked for me.

I've had no problem just pulling the rubber tip off -- I've had to do it twice since the first inch wasn't enough. If it just won't come off, then I suggest you send it back for exchange, or money back.

yes, unlock the plastic disc that holds it in place. The ball comes out and both ball and ball housing are accessible for cleaning

I had the same problem. Try replacing the rubber o-ring. Even if it's new, replace it. Seemed to work for me.

Mine doesn't have instructions on the box, but were on a sheet in the box. There is no mention of pulling out a strip. I suggest you go to the mfg website and look for the instructions.

Good question! Maybe you could pry the ball open at the seam with a knife, replace the 2 little batteries and super glue it back together. I'll try that with one of the "dead" balls that I have and let you know if it worked!
