I just bought this. Does anyone know how to loosen the harness? I pressed the lever and tried to pull the harness but no move at all. solution?

Buckle the chest piece then press the lever and pull on the chest piece. Both straps have to be pulled at the same time.

I had the same problem - the latch release is hidden - top of the seat under that flap but not right under it - more towards the middle of the seat. The bottom lever is actually for the recline. See the diagram in the manual for clarification of the release.

Are you pushing the lever and pulling the straps out when you take them out of the car seat? You should be doing that each time which makes it easier to put them back on. Then once they are in pull the strap down until it retightens them in.

Unfortunately I can't remember exactly how. I will try take a look this evening. I think the previous answer is correct. If I remember correctly, I forced the seat down several times before the spring was activated/able to work. I think there is a release bar the trigger by pressing to down firmly

If it's clicking once every rotation of the metal ramp lever-arm (every ~5 minutes) it's an easy fix. Mine did that right out of the box- the metal lever-arm snaps in place on either side of the ramp. When I got mine I didn't realize one side had fallen out- it was off center and was clicking about its post. Snapped it back into place and the clicking was gone.

Mine is doing the same thing, I bought it last year, less than 8 months after I bought it, starts slipping when I gear up. Now it won't gear up at all. I did send this to OEM repair before New year, no respond. Please let me know if you know how to fix it since I don't believe I can count on the warranty.

You can use either ring - the front or back on the harness. I didn't have any issues with it becoming too loose. Just make sure the harness is fit properly and it should work.

If you're referring to the handle I had the same problem. They are very simple and cheaply made. The wires in the handle come away from the switch. Open the handle and tape wire harness into position. Worked for me. Hope this helps. Cheers.

Unfortunately, there are no directions for this so it is a matter of trial and error. Try sitting on it and move the lever up and down. Remove a little bit it will go either down or up. Good luck

I know I'm responding to this later than the others, but don't loosen the screws! You have to lift the handle first; I know, it's really tough, I had to get my dad to help me, but that really is the solution. Once the handle is lifted, you can turn to knob to adjust the pressure.

Is the plunger all the way up into where the lever is? Check that first. If it still does it then you might have a defective one. Play with it and see if you can get it to work properly. Good Luck!!

Our up/down lever stopped working after about four days too. I took the machine apart and couldn't find anything wrong with it and put it back together. We tried it one more time before boxing it back up to be returned and it worked (And has continued to work ever since). I have no idea what I did to make it work but my best guess is there was a loose wire that shifted back onto place. Sorry, good luck.

There is no release mechanism on the unit as far as I can tell. I just kinda wiggle it back and forth and pull until it slides off. Unless I'm missing something. : )

My son had the same situation, all you have to do is tighten the axel. It gets loose after prolonged use. I hope we were able to help.

O.k. Thanks! I'll try that tonight. I saw that short knob and I keep messing with it, but nothing is happening. I think I'm not doing it right though so I'll try again and maybe get someone to help me. When I jiggle and pull the knobit, do I pull on the base of the machine at the same time? Just making sure I understand what to do here. Thanks again!

I was wondering the same thing. I tried pulling on the head pretty hard and it wouldn't budge. It twists in both directions but does not move up and down at all. I'll have to try again when my son isn't using it (it's his bed time right now).

I pull out the lever to make the chair lean back. I've never felt the need to make any other adjustment. This is the same approach to "Tilt" that I've used on other chairs. Did you expect something different or have you not been able to pull out the lever so it would tilt?

It may loosen occasionally, I have to tighten mine after every 3rd-4th ride. What worked best for my dog's pulling is a nose harness, she was a different dog after we started using it on walks and did not pull at all. When I ride with her, I put the nose harness on her but attach the bike leash to her body harness not the nose harness. Just having it on keeps her in check. You might want to check that out, got mine at Petsmart for $14.
