After assembling it, I can't slide the safety. It won't move at all. Any suggestions?

This happened to me the first time I used it. Push down on the handle and then slide the safety lock. Hope this helps.

Per the instructions on Page 2 it says;While gently pushing the handle down, slide safety lock in, then lift the handle....Then is instructs you how to cut the board. Then is states;Safety lock should be put in the locked position after you finish the job. So in answer to your question, you much push the handle down in orderTo slide the safety lock in.

Press down on the handle and hold in that position while turning the yellow knob counterclockwise. You will now be able to push the locking safety bar to the right releasing the handle. To re-enage the safety bar, press down on the handle and move the bar to the left and then tighten the knob.

unscrew the yellow locking device . if that dose not work ,I would take the tool apart and look for a burr inside the unit.

Hi if i remember you have to lower the handle down all the way and then either apply the safety or remove the safety. Hope this helps

I have never done a slide before so I really can't answer the question. However, this board is a bit heavier than my friend's 44 inch atom board tho. I guess if you change the wheels to wheels that you know can slide, then do so. Sorry If this doesn't help

Call Amazon to find out about that question and to get in contact with the company. I have done the same thing. There is a trick to putting it back together. But in some cases it will not work correctly again.

I haven't had that problem, althought mine has come apart several times. I push the part into the upper piece and turn it in the direction shown by the arrow on the lower part to lock it. I'd offer the suggestion to firmly seat the parts together and then twist the two pieces in the direction shown by the arrows. That's all I can offer.

Make sur you push it down. It should kind of click. Once in, it's pretty secure. If not, something might be off.

Did you try the actual physical adjustments on it, the controler adjustements don't seem to be able to compensate for it being put together out of alignment.

You have to "slide" it in from the side, I think. Worth a try. Or maybe have one person hold one side down while another person pushes the axle down with foot (while wearing a shoe!) Try both suggestions. It's been a while since I put ours together. We have so many of these kids things, it hard to remember how they were all put together. I totally understand your frustration!

I had this problem and just decided to screw the cover, the tailpiece which is supposed up slide on is what you are referring to I assume. Mine would just fall off because it wasn't crimped properly. You can try using pliers to adjust the edges of both the cover and the base if its important to you.

Make sure the belt isn't too tight. I put mine together with the the belt as tight as I could get it at first and it squealed. I went back and noticed that the instructions say to keep a little slack in it.

It's been long enough now that I don't remember if I had to force this or not, but I don't remember having to do that. I remember mine assembling very easily. Hopefully you've got it working okay by now. Good luck!

We had that problem & found that the bottom horizontal struts were collapsed for shipping. There is a button on either side which, when depressed, unlocks the thing & allows you to slide it out to it's full wheelbase extension. Hope this helps.

Hi Mona, Make sure that the main unit or the charcoal filter inside is not in backwards I did this once and it drove me nuts late at night. I came back in the morning and found my problem. ALso the cover should slide without any resistance.

I am having this same issue. I just put the bike together (I believe correctly), but when I try to cycle the pedals they have so much resistance I cannot move them. Did you ever figure out how to fix this?

You may have assembled it incorrectly. The instructions are misleading-go over them carefully. I messed up during assembly and I also couldn't adjust the height. Had to disassemble and correct it and it adjust pretty easily now. Also don't over tighten anything that moves.

Remove the screws on the side and pop the plastic side pieces off. The center metal piece should then slide up and off. Might be a little hex screw on metal part too...can't remember. Good luck!

I had the same problem! It vibrates out of its level selection. I simply tied a rope from the selector lever to the opposite handle. Done deal!

Only problem I had was solved when I realized if I had my weight on the down pedal I wouldn't be able to push down the upper pedal-too much weight to overcome. Had to shift my weight to the up-pedal side before I could successfully pedal it. If it's really, physically stuck, check for what parts are blocking movement and review your assembly, in case something didn't get installed in the correct place.
