How do you get the middle part to unlock to set the height? Am i just missing something really obvious?

Hi GMan, The release is pretty well concealed. It is located near the top of the outermost pair of legs that carries the "height setting dial" at the center pivot. At the top of that leg (just under the cross bar that supports one of end of the keyboard), you will see a slot on the outboard side of the leg. [Note: This is the only leg that has that slot.] Protruding from that slot is a spring loaded short rod or peg with a rubber cover. If you squeeze that rod upwards towards the keyboard resting bar, the rod will slide up in its slot and release the detent on the height setting dial. To prevent disaster, you will probably want to set the height without the keyboard sitting on the stand. I hope you enjoy your stand.

If it was assembled properly, there is a small handle on the side with the orange stickers. It adjust up and down. You need to pull it up to unlock and adjust while holding the handle up. Hope this help.

I have the same issue, it takes a little bit of finessing and turning to get it to sit level. It works really well.

Hi...yup. You really have to step on the release switch to unlock it. Not a favorite of mine but since I just purchased it, I hope it will loosen up over time.

Try removing one of the bars inserted into the side rails to make it shorter. That worked for us.

Mine has a "finger latch" at the top of the handle. Loosen it and then you can pull up to extend to the desired height.

Simply twist & pull to open, then twist the opposite direction [indicated on the pole] to lock the height/length down; nothing to it. Do the opposite to close if desired [I leave mine set at the perfect height]; either way, works fine.

There are different holes you use for the bolts to set the height. If you want to have it taller or shorter, you need to unbolt the rods and use the holes you want. You can't set it anywhere in the range, just where the holes are.

There is nothing that you have to unlock first. I found that if I installed the carseat (facing the correct direction) with either the shoulderbelt or by attaching it to the bars in the crease of the seat with the attachments on the base, it leveled itself. It should be pretty easy, so if you are having additional issues leveling it, it may be defective. [While it is super easy to install now after doing it a few times, I was ready to throw it accross the room initially, so I get the frustration. Everything is actually pretty user friendly so don't overthink it too much. Hope that helps.]

I remember having that problem, too! It's not intuitive. The upper section of the sides/vertical arms has to be removed if I remember correctly.

We adjusted the height on ours with a simple hacksaw. Worked fine and the ladder is very useful. There were directions on exactly how and where to cut it to shorten it.

sorry but don't understand your question well.... but all I can say is that the arms-height adjustment, is not easy as it should be... because sometimes you want to change the height several times during the day and to do it, you have to use strong force to rise it or else... to me, is lack of more design.... unless mine is not good... thanks.

I don't have the instructions either, but it's simple to put together. Bolt the 4 bolts to the top, and the larger wing nut type things is what you use to tilt it to the position you want. The large knobs on the stand help adjust the height. Unscrew the top one on the stand and raise it how high you want it the put the pin in the hole and then tighten it back. The lower knob helps with how far apart you want the legs to be. Hope this helps. any more questions just ask.

Darcy, just make that the straps are threaded through the back and that when you pull the straps to adjust height, you are pulling through the clamp side NOT the side you squeeze to open the jaws. If you haven't gotten it already you will. just mess with it. lemme know if you need a pic...

If it is fastened down how are you supposed to empty it? Mine isn't fastened down. We do have a homemade platform to boost the height. You could try bungie cord. That might be ok with CG.

I am assuming you want to tilt the unit up so it projects a line some height higher than horizontal? You can, but the unit probably will never auto-level itself and will keep blinking on you. You can switch it to locked-mode and the blinking will stop, but will need to manually level it.

Just turn the key to the "open" position and push the ends toward the middle. That should do it!

There's definitely a way to do it; I had the same problem initially. If memory serves, there's a little lever or something that you need to push/pull before you can adjust it. Pretty sure it was detailed in the instructions that came with mine.
