It should not drop down that easily. It may be defective get with the manufacture about this problem.

No there's no lock. Press down firmly to keep it in place. It's made for easy adjustment so that is the reason it moves when you lift from the bottom. If your hitting it from the bottom it will move on you.

Lift and hold the lever on the left side, and push the foot rest down to the position you want, then let go of the lever, it should stay.

Twist (like you would a jar top) and turn it. It will go down and then secure it by turning it into place.

Make sure you have the disk/flange underneath the base seated correctly. Once it is seated you should be able to tighten it up and it won't move any more. From time to time we have to tighten ours up after a month or two of play. Hope this helps.

There is a pull and twist pin that will either keep the rocking movement locked, or allow for continuous rocking. The pin handle is a little difficult to engage/disengage.

pull up the (disengage) the lock. I have to tilt the stool and push one of the legs toward the other. I usually do this with my foot. It takes a bit of pressure to close it and I find that this works best for me.

We locked ours with a small padlock through the hole in the post that goes though cent of wheel. It prevents the bar from turning.

Ours does lock. Twist it around until it falls into place. It shouldn't move.

Slide the pulling side back through the seat so you're pulling from the side opposite the slide lock. Also, rocking while pulling helps a lot. If that still doesn't work, tighten it a little more before you clip it to the D-ring.

It only has two locking positions verticle or horizontal. When you move it from the vertical position to the horizontal you have to raise it about 5-10 degrees above horizontal and let it back down and it will lock horizontal. Id you wish to lower it you have to follow the same procedure before it will let you return it to the vertical position.

I had a little trouble at first too, but now I have the hang of it. You have to bring the backrest portion all the way forward and then back slowly. You will hear it clicking. You may have to do if a few times before it locks in place. It took me a while to get it right, now I get it first try.

I had the same thing happen....when u slide it on,u have to tilt it forward some. It's an awkward fit but it will go all the way down.

The loop sticking off the side is the lock. To lock the rope in place simply turn it loose. To unlock pull down and hold the hope out to the side to lower your game

Hi there. We had the same issue! There is a small "button" on one of the legs (at the edge of the bed part) that you press . It's the same one that's SUPPOSED to click to lock it into place (had some difficulties w/one of ours). It isn't obvious since it kind of blends in with all the other black plastic hardware. Hope this helps. Have a blessed week! :) | db, charlotte nc | 11-Nov-2014.

I have never tried to lock it down but to move it back-and-forth needs just a tiny bit of force to move it not a lot at all but you could pretty much keep it semi stationary as long as you are not moving your legs

I had difficulty with this too. Flip the chair over and push the two legs together with some force, it will begin to close easily.

Sounds like the lock mechanism might be bent. Once it's open it should spring open and stay open until you squeeze it closed and put the lock in place to hold it closed. Are you running your hand or glove over the lock lever forcing it to close and lock when squeezing?
