I had a very hard time as well. It took 3 grown men to do this. I suggest looking on YouTube on how to string the crossbow. It was very helpful, but like I said, you will need 3 to do this

Put the stock on the floor and push down on both sides of the bow while someone hooks the string.

Just twist it one way to loosen and the other to tighten. Maybe there is something wrong with it. Check with the manufacturer. Sorry I could not be more helpful

Hey Donna; I had trouble putting one of the bolts through one of the holes where the arm meets the foot pipe. I got stuck on that one part for about 30 minutes to an hour. It was like the holes were not synced when they were cut. It took some moving around and a few grey hairs later voila! I had my issue on the "L" footbar and arm bar. I had to maneuver the arm and leg every which way to get it to fit. Eventually it ended up going in; could not tell you what I did to force it to fit. It was like little effort did it over my weak force! I hope you ae able to get it to work. I am on the elliptical as I write this and it is an amazing pice of equipment.

I had a very difficult time attaching the extension. I turned it upside down and every which way to try to get it together. I finally got it-but it took 2 people to do it. Some of the panels seem to attach together very tightly, others a little less tight. When you fold the play yard up, some of the panels don't bend easily to fold it together. Good luck!! SW

We used crazy glue and a clamp. Have been in place with no problem for a year or so. Good luck.

keep twisting the pole until the holes match up with the pegs...its a bit tricky...but they are there...

I know it was a pain in the butt, but try to get someone to hold onto the other end and while you are putting the cone on and make sure you twist the cone completely all the way until it snap in.. best way wear a rubber grips gloves and that will help you better to turn turn the cone to lock it in...

You might try using an angle iron, something with a 90* bend. The arm is solid and you'll like it if you can secure to the floor.

You have to push the arms down in a certain order. I believe they have instructions on their website. I won't lie though it isn't easy.

When my elastic string broke I got a shoe string and stapled it to the top . I then tied the toy to the height I wanted and it worked good. Good Luck

I bought my son one of these bows for Christmas, and even though they emailed some instructions, (None came in the box, so I sent them a request for some) we're still having trouble getting it done! I'm going to call a local archery store to see if they can help!

Wish I could help you. I only used mine for curves. It seems thin enough to bend though.

I used a bar to force everything down to get it into place. Don't be afraid to muscle it. Everything should come together. Loosen everything up and try again.

I am having the same problem. I can't figure out how to open the plastic covers to shorten the knot. Anyone else out there know how??

Elizabeth, it takes awhile for the strings to stop stretching, then it should stay in tune longer. You might have to give it a month, I'm afraid. That's what I ran into.

Hi. I made the baby blanket and also found the weaving tool too short. I made a homemade tool from a wire hanger. A thinner-wired hanger is easier to work with. With cutters I snipped the upper arm of the hanger about an inch from the bend. That will be the hook end. The other side I cut a few inches farther up the other upper arm. You bend that part into a handle. Throw the hanger section away. Shape the hook end with pliers. I had to file the cut end to smooth it down. Shape the handle with pliers making it comfortable for you to turn the hook flat to pass through the warp yarn, then to turn it up to go between the pegs to pick up the weft yarn. That's up to you. I wrapped the handle with tape to cushion it a bit. Hope this helps. I can send you pictures of the blanket but I can't figure out how to do it.

Try adjusting the rod at the base of the snow blower that connects to the arm by loosening the nut and turning the shaft inward to shortening it but first you will have to pull the pin at the handle that connects to the rod so you can turn it hope this helps you out
