SPLICED MAPLE, BREAK, AND JUMP SHAFT CARE INSTRUCTIONS
WARPAGE – FINISH. Wood will soak up moisture in wet climates and release moisture in dry climates. To prevent warpage or finish problems, store your cue in an environment that has a stable and consistent temperature with a humidity level of 45 to 50 percent.
ABUSE. Cues made of wood are not designed to withstand lateral pressure and should not be leaned or propped up against a wall, dropped on the floor, bent excessively while playing, or hit on a table. We recommend protecting your cue with a case.
SHAFT DIAMETER. We do not recommend turning your shaft down. Your shaft’s taper and diameter were engineered with accuracy and performance in mind. Should you choose to turn your shaft down, please be aware that any Predator shaft turned down or sanded below the tolerances in the table below will result in the automatic voiding of your shaft’s warranty.

TIP REPLACEMENT. Should you wish to replace the tip on your Predator 3143, Z3, Vantage, or Vantage 3C shaft, do not remove the dark gray tip silencer plate located underneath the tip as this will reduce the strength of your shaft and void the warranty. The tip silencer must remain at least .010″ (0.25mm) thick to maintain the shafts integrity. Should you need to replace the tip silencer, please contact customer service or an authorized Predator repair center. Click here to watch the Predator Third Generation Tip Replacement Instructional Video.
PHENOLIC TIP REPLACEMENT. If you want to replace your phenolic tip on you BK2/BK3 break cue or your Air/Air2 jump cue, do not remove the black carbon fiber tip plate located under the brown phenolic tip as this will reduce the strength of your shaft and void the warranty. Leave .020″ (0.5mm) of the brown phenolic before gluing on the replacement tip.
SHAFT MAINTENANCE. To clean your Predator shaft, use a towel slightly dampened with rubbing alcohol. After cleaning, use a leather burnisher or similar material to seal the shaft. Using a Carnuba wax may also help to seal the shaft and protect it from moisture. To avoid damage, do not sand the shaft; no abrasive is necessary. Do not expose the shaft to excessive moisture and do not steam it to remove dings. Importantly, do not use any water-based cleaner.
THE ORIGINAL UNI-LOC® JOINT. We recommend cleaning the Original Uni-Loc® Quick Release joint when you first receive your cue and every six months thereafter. These joints are precision manufactured to exact tolerances and even a modest amount of dirt can create a problem. You can use a Q-Tip dipped in Isopropyl Alcohol (90%) to clean the inside threads and bore of the shaft insert. Clean the joint pin and threads with alcohol and a clean rag. We recommend the use of joint protectors to help keep your joint clean and to protect it from damage.
FERRULE. Much of the shaft’s performance can be attributed to our ferrule design and composition. Due to the performance enhancing material used for the ferrule, scratches may appear with normal use. In this case, we recommend sending your shaft to an authorized Predator repair center for a clean up. Removing or changing the ferrule will void the warranty.
WRAP CLEANING. For leather and Uni-Loc® Leather LuxeTM wraps, barely dampen a towel with water, wipe the wrap, and dry it immediately. Use Isopropyl Alcohol (90%) for Irish Linen wraps.
PARTIAL SHAFTS. If the official Predator logo is not on your partial shaft, the Limited Lifetime Warranty is void.

REVO CARBON COMPOSITE SHAFT CARE INSTRUCTIONS
SHAFT DIAMETER. REVO carbon composite shafts diameters must never be altered. Any sanding, polishing, or abrasive treatment could compromise the micro-thin layers of carbon fiber and will immediately void the shaft’s warranty. Additionally the use of abrasives on a REVO shaft can release potentially harmful carbon fiber dust.

REVO 12.4 & 12.9 PLAYING SHAFT TIP REPLACEMENT. REVO Carbon composite shafts have no ferrule. The front end is made up of the Predator V-TEK vault plate, red V-TEK Tip Silencer, and eight-layer Victory Tip. Because the shaft cannot be sanded, replacing the tip, and/or the tip silencer should only be done by an authorized Predator Repair Center equipped with the proper tools to protect your REVO shaft. In the event that you choose to replace the tip on your shaft through a non-authorized cue technician, the red V-TEK Tip-Silencer must remain at least .010” (0.25mm) thick to maintain the shaft’s integrity. Any reduction in the tip-silencer below .010” (0.25mm) will void the shaft’s limited-lifetime warranty and compromise its performance.

REVO BK-R BREAK SHAFT TIP REPLACEMENT. REVO BK-R Carbon composite shafts have no ferrule. The front end is made up of the Predator V-TEK vault plate, gray R-Break Shield, and seven-layer BK Hybrid Tip. Because the shaft cannot be sanded, replacing the tip, and/or the R-Break Shield should only be done by an authorized Predator Repair Center equipped with the proper tools to protect your REVO shaft. In the event that you choose to replace the tip on your shaft through a non-authorized cue technician, the gray R-Break Shield must remain at least .010” (0.25mm) thick to maintain the shaft’s integrity. Any reduction in the R-Break Shield below .010” (0.25mm) will void the shaft’s limited-lifetime warranty and compromise its performance.
WARPAGE. REVO carbon composite shafts feature a limited-lifetime warranty against warpage.
ABUSE. REVO carbon composite shafts are not designed to withstand extensive lateral pressure. They should not be bent excessively, hit on the table or other objects, or treated with any abrasives, solid or liquid. We recommend protecting your shaft with a case and joint protectors.
REVO SHAFT FINISH MAINTENANCE. REVO carbon composite shafts should never be sanded or modified. Sanding the surface of the REVO shaft will damage the exterior finish and weaken the shaft’s structural integrity and release potentially harmful materials that could affect your health. Any sanding, polishing, or treatment of the surface of the shaft with chemicals or abrasives of any kind will void the shaft’s limited-lifetime warranty and negatively affect the shaft’s longevity and performance. Never use talcum powder, baby powder, hand chalk, or other shaft treatments on a REVO carbon fiber composite shaft.
To clean the surface of your REVO carbon composite shaft, you can use one of the following two solutions: REVO Wipes, or Isopropyl Alcohol (90%) cleaning.
Step 1. Wipe the shaft with the included microfiber cleaning cloth, brushing away any lose dirt, dust and debris.
Step 2. Using a REVO wipe or soft cloth towel with a reasonable amount of Isopropyl Alcohol (90%), work up and down the shaft, from the joint end toward the tip while rotating your hand around the shaft’s circumference. You may see dirt on the towelette – this is normal. Continue to work the shaft until all areas have been thoroughly wiped, allowing 1-2 minutes for the surface to dry.
THE ORIGINAL UNI-LOC® JOINT. We recommend cleaning the Original Uni-Loc® Quick Release joint when you first receive your cue and every six months thereafter. These joints are precision manufactured to exact tolerances and even a modest amount of dirt can create a problem. You can use a Q-Tip dipped in Isopropyl Alcohol (90%) to clean the inside threads and bore of the shaft insert. Clean the joint pin and threads with alcohol and a clean rag. We recommend the use of joint protectors to help keep your joint clean and to protect it from damage.
