If the upper section of the pole is detached from the middle setion, how is the upper section reatached to the middle section?

We made the same mistake--make sure the smaller section is turned full counter-clockwise relative to the white inner plastic piece that inserts into the upper handle. Then you should be able to reassemble them. Don't force the pieces together.

I have never had the upper section come apart. I know the bottom half has but was easy to slide back together. I would think the same thing applies to the top portion. I have been extremely happy with my purchase and consistently use these poles on all my hikes. They are easy to adjust and handle. The cost for me made it a perfect fit. I am glad to have made this purchase, no regrets.

The instruction sheet received with the BAFX 2 Pack - Anti-Shock Hiking Poles gives a "how-to" to the question asked regarding reattaching the adjustable pole sections. "Problem: I accidently pulled the sections apart and now I can't fit them back together.........The white plastic piece on the top of the bottom section is the locking mechanism. Ensure the small black rubber band is still sitting properly in the middle of the locking mechanism. Then turn the entire plastic locking mechanism counter-clockwise until it spins freely, this puts it in the un-expanded position which will allow you to slide the lower section back into the upper section of the pole. Once you have the two sections together, rotate the lower section to the right to lock them back in place...."

We had the same issue, but the top section didn't come all the way out. It stopped just past the "stop here" line (okay, it was our fault). You could not twist it to lock or unlock it, nor pull it in or out - it was just plane stuck. My wife and I finally got at each end and pulled as hard as we could. The top part popped off and we were able to then put it back together. We have been very careful ever since to not let that happen again. We now like these poles!

You extend it in the same way as you do with most types of extending poles, just grab the center and then rotate the bottom and then pull it out to your length and then tighten it up again.

when open, there is no pole in the center. the two halves are held shut with magnets and open to reveal a full opening

My seller, ajillis_products - Amazon Marketplace, replaced my pole promptly when I had a similar situation. I was very pleased with the manner the seller dealt with the problem. A small break in one pole section is easy to repair and will last. Just use a hacksaw to cut off about 1" of the end and re-install in the ferrel; coupling.

The base and pole are separate when shipped, the pole attaches to the base by being screwed on a ~10mm threaded mount (did not actually measure this - from my foggy memory).

The base is attached with screws. Yes, if you removed the screws, you are left with a 90 degree plate that is welded to the pole. That is what I did with my current setup. Good luck .

There are 3 height positions on the inside of the poles holding the top pole. Just push the button, lower to one of the other holes and let the button click into that hole.

No. You could probably cut off the small piece that you lift up. the entire top piece is part of the snap together structure.

You need some way to slip it over the pole it does not come a part. Either slide it down from the top or lift it up from the bottom.

Yes, The middle of the unit can be unlatched. It comes completely off so you would have 2 pieces.

As telescopic pole, one piece fits inside the other. There is a twist lock, like a screw, that tightens the two together. You loosen that and the pole slides down.

You disconnect both worm-drive clamps so they are open and wrap around the pole. May take two people to mount. I did it alone bit not without losing some religion!

there's screws at the base but if you take them out it would fall apart as there is a center pole ( basically which is the handle ) so unless you were to cut the handle off.....but, that was a good idea, too bad as I would do the same !

G'day EddieAmazon, You can only remove the the mounting plate from the main stem but not the 1/4" thread. It is a sealed one part joint.However, The entire assembly can be separated into three parts. The Main stem, The suction cup and the ball joint.Hope this helps.

The bottom half of the pole comes off, including the screw. It fits in the bag well.

The silver colored vertical poles have a a spring powered button towards the bottom that fit into a single notch towards the top of the black vertical pieces they slide into. There are only two "settings," locked at full height, or fully retracted. In case the picture isn't clear, the bottom pieces go to slightly above the halfway point and fully retracted, the top cross bar is maybe four inches above the lower cross bar.

The upper pole section, right below the handle, has a spring loaded metal button and a series of holes below the button. You press the button in with your thumb or finger against the tension of the spring and then slide the pole section upward so that the button fits in any of the holes to obtain the correct length for your usage. After using the pole, you press the button in again and move the pole section downward so that the button fits into the uppermost hole in the handle section. That reduces the folded pole's to its shortest length so that it will be easy to carry and to fit into the supplied fabric case.
