It s best to remove the tip by wrapping the tip with a business card and unscrew it with pliers (carefully so they don t get chewed up) as they are glued on at the factory. 2- Heat the cover (with a hair dryer i.e. or a toaster oven, not a microwave) to make it pliable and slip it off the drumstick more easily 3- Heat the new cover in order to slip it on the drumstick. Do not forget the blend ring. 4- When replacing the tips, screw them on 1/2 way and apply a drop of super glue to the threads and continue to tighten on the tip until it is snug against the cover. The covers are very important, so the tighter they are the better. Make sure they are snug against the blend ring by slamming the butt end of stick on carpet or a soft surface.
