Thanks for reaching out! To install the 15-159 Malta Pivot shoe on the string, you'll need a pair of standard pliers as well as a pair of locking pliers. You'll use the standard pliers to pull the string down, about one foot. Then you'll need to lock it in place using the locking pliers. This should allow you to change the shoe. Of course make sure that you are securing the string to the shoe tightly so that it does not slip when tension is applied to it from the balance. Once you've installed the shoe, hold the string with the standard pliers and release the locking pliers. Then gently release the string so that it does not shoot back up into the balance, breaking the shoe. I hope this helps! |

We do not have exact instructions on how to install the balances once you've attached the shoe, however, the guide called ' How to install a S775 balance ' (attached to this thread) may give you an idea on how to install this balance. The difference would be that the Malta pivot shoe screws into the window frame. I hope this helps! |
