I tried on my flippers and there seems to be an insert of some kind. I can fully pull it. Do I use the insert or was it for shipping purpose?

I think that is just for shipping to keep the shape. If you look very closely on the tab it tells you to remove, it is very hard to see.

Oh yeah, you have to pull that out. Flippers feel much better once you get rid of the insert.

Slide the lock towards the outer rim to put the reel back on. This is not a quality product in my opinion. I had an older one for 10 years, but this one is so inferior and cheap that I cant believe it is the same company. I pitched both of mine

It helps you remove the bolt from a target. If the insert pulls out because the bolt is stuck in the target you just pull out the insert. Making that a minor repair.

Yes you do. It's a screw-hex nut that seats into the fin to avoid self loosening. Should have been in packaging. Suggest just going to a Home Depot hardware dept. vs dealing with vendor.

It's been a looong time since I had the item. You are looking at the bottom. There should be a cover, either flip up, slide off or held in place with a small screw. hope this helps

Christopher, I hade the same problem until, I cleaned the oil of the insert and tapped it in using a block of wood and hammer and it stayed. I have been using it ever since with no problem. I hope this helps. Khalid

Hey Jonathan, did you find out about this or found another insert suitable for the kind of combo you have? (I have a similar one and am desperately looking for an insert solution!

I had a similar question, and called the company number on the insert. They were helpful.

Just pulled mine out of the shipping box, only to find out the tip is HUGE for any SMD work. More of a general tip, and even for that it is not small. If I end up keeping it I need to buy smaller tip right away.

To be precise, this knife opens on the power of you actuating the flipper. There is no internal spring assist with this knife. I found that my item was a little slow at first on the opening flip action, but quickly has loosened up. I suppose a little drop of oil would make it quicker. This is a low- dollar flipper. The more expensive flippers are like greased lightening out of the box.

The one that came with my insert is .100" , I have not used it yet so not sure if I need it. I agree with the first response to your question, that is the way I do it if I build my own.

I had the same problem. It's a press fit but very tight. Pull the black tip straight out with a pair of pliers while holding onto the blue part. You'll see the bit is double-ended - just flip it around to use the other end/size and push it in until it clicks into the little slot on the blue handle.

I see no reason for it unless your paddles get hung up too much. The scrapper strip should maintain the required clearance necessary for the paddles under normal conditions. If the scrapper strip is worn away, you probably should replace it.

I ordered mine last February, but I read somewhere in the description that the insert was not included so I ordered at the same time to insure I received both items timely. They were billed and shipped separately (within a day of each other) and everything fit perfectly, it looks great and works beautifully!!

Its a fishing lure with like a safety pin at one end and you just open and close it when attaching the different refills. You will see it with all the metal bits at the end of the line. You will see on the new attachment where the line should attach. Youll get it once you see the safety pin like thing on the end

It is easy on the insert it says OPEN THIS SIDE I used a sturdy knife on that side and gently prided it up, to replace it you put in that side first and press firmly down and it clicks into place. If you notice there is a little lip on the side to open you have to place it below the lip and then press down.I hope this was helpful.Bye Ricalda

I own a 350 and the flipper is maybe 1/16th in. longer in the 561, not really noticable until you measure it. There is some gimping on the back of the flipper of the 561 that I thought might have more drag when retrieved from the pocket but that did not pose a problem that was noticable to me. Hope this helps
