Replacing a Rubber Band

While the bands supplied are strong and hardwearing they are rubber bands and will break from time to time.

You may also want to experiment with other types of rubber band.

4 bands are included so you have plenty of spares.

Replacing the bands is quick and easy. Please see the included video showing how to do this or the step by step instructions below.


Loop a food bag tie through the rubber band.

This process can be done without the food bag tie, this just makes it easier.


Push the food bag tie through the holes in the hammer. Then use it to pull the band through. Remove the food bag tie.


Place the ring base over the hammer.

Pull the bands over the two tabs.
