I just received this stand today and the center clutch does not hold the height adjustable stand in place. Is the clutch broken?

If the the clutch doesn't hold the stand up, then it probably is broken or poorly assemble at the plant. You will probably want to return it. I have ten of these stands and I'm fortunate not to have received one with your problem. So, chances are, your replacement stand will work just fine.

Hello M. Person. Unscrew the center clutch assembly all the way and pull up the screw collar. you should have a 2 plastic sleeves, the bottom piece which is about a inch long, should be sitting in the lower stand assembly about 3/4 of the way in. The second top collar which is about a 1/4 inch long should be sitting on top of the other one. If you don't see the top plastic ring check to see if it is lodged up in the screw collar. Try re seating the plastic rings and make sure not to cross thread the screw collar when tightening. Hope this helps.

Oh jeez dude, i dont remember, lost/threw away the box a while ago. Its a nice stand though. I havent had any issues with it, and Ive had it well over a year

Mine did the same thing when I first got it. You can adjust the height of the beaters. Lift the top up, like you're going to remove the bowl. There is a screw underneath where the top attaches to the stand. Use a screwdriver to adjust the beater. You turn it to the right to lower it. That fixed mine.

I think you may have assembled it wrong by using some of the wrong hardware. When I assembled and tightened to a firm snug level, they adjust perfectly. I would re-evaluate the pieces you have used

I extend the legs first and tighten nuts...this gives the stand some downward weight. Then loosen the turn knob at end of center post and the inner tube should advance freely. Sounds like there may be a dent or crimp in the tubing or a metal burr that's catching. I'd return for an exchange.

Rhonda, I have the same problem with the Sony 46Z4100 I unpacked yesterday. I have a call into the store I bought it from and am waiting for a response. There is no way to adjust the tilt of the stand that I can see without taking the stand apart. It may have to be replaced. Harvey

Both of mine are able to stand upright without issue. Since it's a thin metal, I'd suggest just hitting it a couple of times. Otherwise I'd return it.

It is the height of the stand...as I said in the review also take into account that the stand is threaded but too loose you need to use lock tight to assemble

Hi PD, have you tried adjusting the center bit with the included Allen wrench? Also what seems to be the problem?

Mine works fine...but I just leave it on high and shift the bike from gear to gear. Sorry I have no solution other than that.

Have you tried the gas lift to adjust the height, up and down? That's the only way I know if you have assembled it correctly.

I would contact the manufacturer. Ours is still solid as a rock and we've had it for almost a year. Perhaps a defect in the construction. From other comments I've read about this bench the seller is prompt and courteous in responding to problems with their product. They may just ship you another one. Worth a try.

there was a threaded nut soldered into the base of mine. I just screwed the center post into it, put a drop of clear nail polish, and tightened it up. Mine works just fine. Hope this helped.

I can't show you, but I can suggest to make sure your locking is tight when attaching it to a stand, and then make sure the lever adjustment is snug. If your ring is tilting, then rule out the stand. If the lever tightener on the ring is bad, then contact Stellar. I've had no trouble with the two I have.

I would suggest getting someone to help. First you need to remove the stand. Also, you need to get a bracket kit that is compatible. I bought mine at Best Buy. Mine was not difficult to figure out once the bracket kit was attached. But, I had a handy man in my building help since it was a bit heavy to lift.

I will be honest with you, ours was broken when we got it , then they had no more. All i read are bad reviews on the product and the company. good luck

I've had this stand for several years now and if I remember correctly I might have come across that issue but luckily I had some nuts that actually got the bolts...I suggest u go to your local hardware store and find the nuts for them. It's much faster and the stand is worth it hope this helps
