    For your safety, do not SlingBoard if you are pregnant. • The SlingStick should always remain out to your side, at least one foot out from the edge of the SlingBoard.

If you feel strong resistance when pushing it out turn the tube around to push out from the other side.
  • Page 11 Next slide the black Piston assembly out of the top of the Inside Tube. Hand unthread the Pistons at both ends of the Power Band. Replace or change out the Power Band if needed by threading on a new or different band. Hand tighten both Pistons onto the new Powerband until they are snug, but do not overtighten.
  • Page 12 Hold the piston assembly up from the side so that the hole in the Lower Piston is visible. The hole in the Lower Piston should be well aligned with the small hole in the side of the Upper Piston. If it is not, unthread the Lower Piston just enough to align.

  • Page 14 Use the Phillips head screw driver to insert both Phillips Flat Head Screws back into the two holes at the top of the Inside Tube, one goes in on each side locking the Upper Piston back into place inside. Next slide the Inside Tube back down into the Outside Tube by inserting the bottom end of the Inside Tube into the top end of the Outside Tube.

  • Page 16 Next locate the Handle and slide it back into the Outside Tube. Turn it so that it is positioned like it was before removing it in relation to the SlingStick decal on the side. Then turn it slightly if needed to align the holes in it with those at the top of the Outside Tube.
