Thread: Tensioning a Zhanchi

  1. #1

    Default Tensioning a Zhanchi

    I got a Dayan Zhanchi 3x3 a couple of weeks back. And I love it. my average has practically halved now. I wanted to adjust the tensioning on the cube just a little bit, but I can't move loosen the screws. if I can move it at all, the layers themselves turn. any help?

    Hold down the cube with your hand and use the other hand to tension the cube.?.......

    I had the same problem, I was using a smaller screwdriver. Make sure the radius of the handle isn't too small, or else you can't produce enough torque to remove the screw.

    DeathCuberK, you wee right. just a little more force was needed. for some reason the white face's screw was wedged in tight. I've chipped it badly and it simply won't move now. can I get that screw alone replaced or will I need a new core?
