First thing first- not a bearing problem like with other numeral issues

Lately when Im putting my yoyo back together, i realized that when i twist it snug, it goes past the arrows on the side so that it seems like im over tightening the yoyo. Your thoughts"

The arrows don’t mean anything, they do when you buy it, but after a while they do not line up. Just tighten it firm. If they don’t line up do not worry. They actually will wear of from you holding the yoyo a lot.

The axle isn’t in a position where they will line up. Just tighten it until it is tight, then stop. It won’t crack.
