You just pull the handle straight out from the body a little bit then crank it.

Its not locked. The keys are inside. All you must do is push the locks, one to the right, the other to the left. Try that.

most definitely, release the lock, adjust the gas, press the starter and go. it stays on until you shut it of. this also allows for one hand operation.

There is a round hand crank just under the seat at the front - turn it clockwise (looking at the machine) - it is probably loose! This happens to mine & I have to tighten it up daily.

This is going to sound crazy, but, I found wetting my hands and drying them most of the way then grabbing the dirt holder in both hands and twisting works for me. The dampness of my hands grabs the holder enough to allow me to twist it to get the unlock symbol in the open position. I need 2 hands to twist, while holding the body of the machine between my legs. Its not a good answer, but, its been working. I hope Hoover is reading these comments!

We ran into to that and it was the bike pump we were using, my husband used the connection for the air compresser and that fixed our issue with it. We have not tried to find a hand pump for it yet since the air compresser is handy for us.

Yes, it can be cocked by hand, imo the pulley crank is just somthing to get in the way and break

The one I received requires a key to unlock and unscrew the bottom. We lost the key, and made a new key by grinding the end of an old Ikea hex wrench.

Seems silly but are you sure it is in the unlocked position? When in the locked position the lever part is at the unlocked arrow. You have to press down and move the selector the direction of the arrow in order for it to unlock. When unlocked the Lever should be at nearly a 45degree angle and free to bobble back and forth when touched. When locked the handle doesn't move even when pressed or pulled.

It is a manual winch and there is a position on the selector to free wheel out but the crank is still engaged so controlled release is possible. Steer clear of the crank if you lose control of it.

You need to plug it in for the paddles to turn. There is no hand crank on this machine.

unlocking mine i only press the four key numbers and works well. I only use that button for locking and turning. I guess you touched the button by mistake and it open - that i have not seen. I will try. If it's a new lock it could be a defect. I would try clsoing and opening and repeating what you did to see if you duplicate the failure and if happens again ...return it.

More than likely you will need a reset code. You can google how to reset/unlock the radio from scratch. Its a simple procedure. You can set in your own reset code prior to disconnecting the radio and then use that when you re-connect the radio. Your vehicle hand book should have that procedure in it.

If you really can't get it by hand, MAYBE you could try a pair of pliers or channel locks, being very careful not to squeeze the handles to tight. Also, you could try running under hot water.

On the edge of the cuffs there is a small button on the side that doensnt allow the rachet in. Push that is with the pin side of the key. To unlock it use twist the key one way to unlock one mechanism, then the other to unlock the rachet

If I recall correctly, the key is a plastic thing, relatively cheaply-made, designed to keep the power cord from pulling out while the machine is in use. If you can plug in, the key is probably not needed. You might want to wrap the cord around the loop below the handle to keep it from being pulled out. If you can't plug in, you might see if you can do something to get parts out of the way so you can. Good luck!
