THIS IS FOR THE THICKER REPLACEMENT / UPGRADED STRING WHITE IN COLOR

This string is thicker and harder to thread, but once you get it on, it should last for years longer than the standard string. On the side-by-side picture, the red and yellow string is the original size that came with the machine. When you bought it new, and the white string is the thicker string, I think the thinner string is too thin and breaks too easy, and I think the white string is much thicker and better, and will last years longer. It is a little bit harder to string the thicker string, but I think it’s worth it. You might not actually get the same color string, but it will be the same thickness as the white one in the picture or the picture of the red one in the Ziploc bag.

Here’s a couple tips on how to get it on, if you take a lighter and burn the tip just slightly, it makes it harder and more rigid and easier to shove through the spool, then use something like a paper clip to poke it through also if you get a Allen wrench and loosen that spool and pull it out a little bit away from the motor, it gives you a little bit more clearance. If you want the standard size string, look at the other auction, it is white in color, and the white one is the standard size. YOU GET 4 THICK strings

You get 4 Rainbow sugarloaf toy house plush claw crane replacement strings. I'm cleaning out my warehouse and I have a few parts I don't need, so I want to sell them. If you own one of these cranes, you really need to have one of the strings inside the bottom of the crane as a spare for when it breaks, and it will break, this is not something you can go get at Walmart, Think of how much money you will lose while this machine is out of order. You cannot use yarn or shoestrings or yo-yo strings or package strings or anything else, look closely at the string on your machine or in this picture, it is heavy duty, high-quality, it is 200 pound string, look at the detail how it is made, it's made like a rope. It's good business sense to go ahead and buy one of these and keep it in the bottom of your machine and have it ready for when you need it, your crane machine is probably about 20 years old. The string is kind of hard to change, you might want to do yourself a favor and go ahead and print off a copy of the diagram here that shows you how the string is ran and go ahead and put that in the bottom of your machine as well with the string. You might also put a very thick wire in the bottom of your crane as well to help you run the string in those tight spaces where it needs to go along with a Phillips and flat head screwdriver.
