Default How to install finger savers on string?

I got asked to put finger savers on a friend's brother's bow.

I got a portable bow press, but was wondering if I even needed it, or if the finger savers have/need to be served to the bow (which I can't do serving, so...)

Anyone know how they're installed and can instruct me on how to do it and what tools are needed to do so? Thanks a lot.

Tools you'll need-
Press
Cotter Key
Rubbing Alcohol
Nock Sets and Crimps

Put bow in press.
Take string off.
Put End loop(string) in the cotter pin.
Slide the finger savers on.
Put some alcohol on the string and savers.This is safe by the way!
Slide the savers down.
Level your arrow and put your nock sets on.
Then slide the savers down to them.
Your finished.
