The bar is probably install upside down. Try reinstalling it the opposite way.

I had to use duct tape...nobody sees it anyways with clothes on it. I put the lighter tops and dress shorts on the bottom GOOD LUCK

The lower bar on my Z-rack would slide down when I first hung clothes on it. Then I tightened the heck out of the nuts for the lower bar, even beyond where I thought it might crimp the vertical bar. It now holds a ton of pant hangers.

Hi.. I noticed that too but.. mine just stays up until I push it back down.

I just had my husband tighten it and that solved the problem. However, had that not worked, I was planning on putting a piece of gripper pad (the kind you can get at the dollar store for opening jars) around the bar under the clamp.

Lift up on the bottom red handle. Pull up the sides to a semi locked position, then push down the bottom. That should lock the sides

Hi Al,I don't have anything to add to the great answers already provided. Some have really specific instructions step by step, and what to do if you decide to take it down or move to another location. This is what I remember doing, and though it's short on instructions, you can see the directional arrows for clockwise and counter-clockwise to lock it in place right on the chrome suction part of the bar. Good luck!

Had this issue but found that the rubber seal on the bottom comes loose so take it apart and make sure rubber seal is in the groove and tighten really well

I had to unscrew one of the screws on the U-shaped things on the bottom to be able to get them around the front bar, then screw them back in. Took me a few minutes to figure that one out, too...

The bottom is very weak! Leave the bottom out and top on, then flip it upside down. Have to permanently attach it, but would be strong enough that way.

Measure where you want the bar and then with no clothes on the lower bar, tighten by hand very tightly. Test your measurement with one item, such as a shirt, and make sure both sides of the bar are even so bar is straight. The use a ratchet tool with a lot of muscle or a power tool to really tighten hardware. I was sad at first thinking this was a bad design but it does work with the right tools and is a nice feature.

The clamp on the bottom should be preventing this. Make sure it's locked and tight enough (but not too tight -- it snapped on me and made the stand practically useless).

No, unfortunately the bar that goes accross the bottom makes that impossible. I don't know if the bar can be safely removed? It dosn't look like it.-Another Home Health OT

Not too bad; loosen two thumb screws down near the bottom on each side. Then lift the bar up and out of the way.

Sorry, but this version does not support exit bars. You may want to search for our ETDL version locks. Thank you, B&H; Depot

My guess is that the material is not sticking to the platform. Try preheating it.

This may be late to answer this, but I just had this problem and figured it out. Push the two locking size selection buttons in on the bottom bar and rotate it so the hook is easier to attach to then rotate the bar back until the buttons click into place now that the roller is attached.

Sounds like you need to loosen the bar that holds your feet in place one notch.
