I had a similar learning curve as well on this tuning system. To restring I would start by having the winders in full position and feed the string into the eyehole. Now start moving the tuning knob to bring the winder down with the string. Once the string hits the hole, begin to clamp the string with the screw on the top of the string winder and tighten. Now turn the tuning know until string is in tune. Think Floyd Rose but Korean. It is actually a great tuning system once you get it down. Have fun and enjoy! Slow and steady wins the race my friends.
