I would recommend loosening the two little allen screws that hold the biscuit to the windage bracket and removing the biscuit to do the procedure. Just pick up a few bristles at a time and work your way evenly around the circumfrence of the biscuit. You can note your progress by occasionally dropping an arrow vertically down through the biscuit and seeing how far the fletching falls through the biscuit. When you can look at the edge of the biscuit and you don' t see any bristles stop! If you drop the arrow at this point you will realize how little resistance this rest really has while still keeping its reliability. The Carolina Archery Products website does recomend putting a drop of adhesive on the front and rear of each fletch, thats good advice. Good luck hunting!
