Troubleshooting

Axle stand height is difficult to adjust

Ensure the ratchet mechanism is clean and free from dirt or debris. Check for any obstructions around the adjusting column.

Stands seem unstable

Verify that the stands are placed on a flat, level, and solid surface. Ensure the vehicle's weight is distributed evenly across both stands and that they are fully engaged with the vehicle's support points.

Rust or corrosion noticed

Light surface rust can often be removed with a wire brush. Apply a light coat of oil to protect the steel. Store in a dry environment.
