Step 2

  • Soak the replacement handle grips in warm water for 2-3 minutes.
  • The longer you soak the handle grips in water, the larger they get. Soaking the handle grips for a long time will not damage them.

  • Holding the T-tube with one hand, slide a handle grip completely onto the T-tube.
  • Repeat for the other handle grip if installing both.
