Why is it that when I’m putting my yoyos back together I can’t seem to line up the little arrows again? What is the purpose of these markers?

It’s an indicator for how tight you screwed your yoyo up for tuning. The vibe of yyf’s plastics changes depending on how tight they are, and the arrows make it so you don’t have to retune it evry time you unscrew.
