What is the best way to insert the knife blade in the Hot Knife Tool?

The knife blade can easily be attached to the tool.  Before the tool is plugged into an electrical outlet and while both the tool and the knife blade are still cool to the touch, simply insert the knife blade and screw it into place.  If desired, use pliers to hold the knife blade in place while attaching it to the tool.  NOTE:  After using the Hot Knife Tool and before removing the knife blade tip, allow the heated tool and tip to completely cool down - approximately 30 – 45 minutes.
