you need to 'reset' the grenades:

Push the firing button all the way in, once properly reset, releasing the button will leave it lying flush with the back of the grenade.

The balls are part of the mechanism inside, unscrew it and there will be a metal thing with a spring on one end. The balls sit on 4 holes around the sides of the metal thing.

Hi you need to push the firing mechanism in, you should hear a slight click as the seal resits. As for the ballbearing use vasaline to reseat the bearing into teh hole. NEVER use MD40 I did and all teh ball bearings fell out

If you stand the advertising it pretty comprehensive and could just help you watch past 3/4 minutes...

6:40 is probably a good time to start actually...
