Troubleshooting

Hook is unstable or leaning

Ensure the hook is inserted deeply enough into firm, compacted soil. If the ground is too soft, consider adding extra support or choosing a different location.

Finish is fading or damaged

Clean gently with a damp cloth. For minor scratches, touch-up paint in a suitable black finish may be used. Avoid harsh chemicals.

Difficulty inserting into the ground

Water the area slightly before insertion to soften the soil. If encountering significant resistance (e.g., rocks), choose an alternative spot.
