Replacing a lead in mechanical pencil
“Pull out the cap section (1) and switch in AN anti-clockwise direction till the slider (2) is totally unscrewed from the barrel (3). Push the slider grip (4) on to show the lead holder (5) and any remaining lead. To unleash any residual lead, hold the slider grip firmly between thumb and finger and down towards the slider grip. The ensuing spring action can unleash the lead. Unscrew the refill nut (6) and take away a spare lead from within the barrel. Replace refill nut.
Insert the new lead into the lead holder, guaranteeing it's pushed absolutely into place. (Failure to push the new lead right into the holder could cause it to maneuver up and down once writing). Move the slider grip back on the slider towards the cap section and insert the entire slider mechanism into the barrel.
