ATTACHMENT OF THE GLOVE RADAR
The Glove Radar is attached to any ball glove, large or small, baseball or
®
softball, by a strong, weather-resistant nylon cord. The cord is inserted
through the three Glove Radar eyelets, carefully routed, secured around
®
selected glove features, such as the leather lacing and/or the wrist strap, and
tied in place. This attachment technique is compatible with the designs and
dimensions of virtually any conventional ball glove or mitt commonly in use.
The strong nylon cord, and attachment of the Glove Radar
the glove finger area, provide safe, reliable performance even after encoun-
tering the severe impact forces created by high velocity ball impacts (ball
speeds greater than 90 MPH). Design of the Glove Radar
ment system, to withstand the maximum likely thrown ball velocities assures
considerable margin for most users who are involved with much lower ball
speeds. For small gloves (less than 10 inch patterns), and for ball velocities
less than 50 MPH, the Glove Radar
if necessary. However, the finger area is recommended for
attachment whenever possible, and must be used for ball speeds over 50
MPH. One step-by-step attachment technique is described as follows:
1. Insert each end of the cord down through the top two eyelets and
pull upward such that the cord ends are about even in length.
2. Place the Glove Radar ® behind the glove fingers, about 2.5 to 7.5 cm
below the glove finger tips. (See TIPS.) Pull each end of the cord up
toward the glove finger tips. Wrap the cord ends around the glove lacing
between the glove fingers, with one cord end around the lacing
between the first and second fingers, and the other cord end around
the lacing between the third and fourth glove fingers.

3. Bring both cord ends back toward, and up through, their respective eyelets.
4. Route each cord adjacent to the Glove Radar
bottom eyelet. Pull out the slack in the cord. Slip the two cord ends into the
small rubber band and slide the band up toward the lower eyelet.
5. Wrap one cord end ( the longer one, if different lengths) around a lower
glove lace, or other glove feature that the cord can securely wrap around.

Pull and tie the two cord ends together into a tight knot, locating the knot
