There was no instruction manual, just a sheet of paper with a diagram. If the top doesn't stay where you put it then you probably just need to screw it down with more force.

I put the top on with the leaver almost 360 degrees counter-clockwise and the move it around until it feels seated, then turn it clockwise until it feels snug. Works every time, although the leaver may not be perfectly lined up with the handle.

I agree with the other 2 responses. Plus, I have issue with the top of it rolling down constantly and not staying in place.

My guess is that you cranked it up to high. Try stopping before you reach the very top and then backing the crank off, as it advises in the instructions.

I've read that others have had trouble with the top, but I have not. It's always very easy for me to put on securely and it stays in place. Perhaps you have one that has been manufactured improperly? You might want to return it and ask for a replacement.

That's odd. Mine comes off almost too easily! I just lift it off the top. Sounds like you got a fit that's not within specs!

I dont understand the top sheet is suppose to come off. The only way i know how to keep the top sheet on is to sew it to the bottom one. Good luck

I didn't get an instruction manual with mine either. I googled for it! Good luck!

The instructions tell you to assemble the top and botyom base before doing the rest....I can check to see if I still have the assembly instruction.s I threw my Whitmor closet out. What is your email address?

The top constantly falls off. I may glue it with a hot glue gun. It really should be weighted with some rocks before gluing on the lid, otherwise the whole thing will blow around. Before, I tried taping a sandwich-sized ziplock bag filled with rocks to the inside of the lid. It was enough to keep it on, but the tape will not adhere to the plastic beyond a couple of weeks at most. I will post if I come up with anything else.

I am having the same problem. I plan to anchor it by placing a roped Brick O block to each corner post and lay one block on each side and back to prevent wind from getting under it. I have not tried it , but plan to.Please let me know of any ideas you get from others

So glad you asked that question. I just got my unit and have been trying to take the top off for the past 15 minutes. Finally looked here and was relieved that it's not just me. Finally I got it off - no secret - just brute strength. :-)

No. Mine is not like this. It sounds like you have a defective top. I'm sure they will replace it.

You may have cross treaded the top. Easy to do, remove the top set it on top again, back it up like you are taking it off very slowly. You will fill a slight click when it lines up properly. now tighten.

The secret is to be sure that the top is aligned with the bottom. Make sure that you have everything perfectly in line and it will fit as expected. Put it on crooked and it will not fit. My significant other came up with an ingenious idea, fitting a small level on the top with super glue. All we have to do now is check the level to be sure everything is in line.

What I did was measure the opening on the lid, mine fell within the range of this top. Just make sure you order whichever top is within the size of your lid opening. I did have to use the metal ring that comes with it to hold it on, but I've not been sorry I ordered it.

I lost the directions to disassemble this after I bought it. How do you disassemble the top?
