How To Change Your Snowshoe Bindings

Dual Ratchet Bindings:

Removing old binding:

  1. Step One: Turn the snowshoe over and remove the screws under the bindings. There should be four screws with four bolts. Use a wrench to loosen the bolt or an allen wrench on the other side to keep the screw steady.
  2. Once you have removed the screws you can begin to remove the padding and metal section from the snowshoe and set it aside. You will need these pieces for the new bindings

Adding New Bindings:

  1. Take the new bindings and place the binding on top of the snowshoe, make sure the heel strap is on the bottom of the snowshoe and the two holes are inline with the two holes on the strap.
  2. Underneath the snowshoe, place the metal plate inline with the top two holes and the leather pad underneath it.
  3. Screw the 4 screws and bolts into place.
  4. Tighten the screws with a wrench and an allen wrench and make sure they are secure.
