Took off the top and now can't get it back on. It should just slide down and click in but it won't go down far enough to slide it back in place. Help!

Make sure you did not over fill the peppercorns. You can only fill it to the bottom of the tab where the top connects inside the reservoir. Otherwise if you line up the groves it should slide down and lock counter clockwise.

Make sure the tracks are clear of all salt dust S . Align the slots and push down firmly. Twist counterclockwise.

Try putting it in upside down from the way the instructions say I put it the way it said at first and it would slide out from bottom, but I flipped and now it's great, and it will need a nice hard push for it to click so don't be afraid, but don't exaggerate on the force to get it to click.

Just hold the base and turn the top counter clockwise to unlock it. To put the top back on, just reverse the process. I would suggest setting it on a flat surface, aligning the locking tabs and turning it clockwise.

Worked great but top keeps popping off. Not sure I put it on correctly or of broken.

You just gently press it back in place, it will stay there, oh, you'll think it will pop back open, but it doesn't. I stays.... Bad thing is I lost mine already. :(

Give it a little tug that should set it in place. Any way that works for me.

You have to take it out and try again. Just keep trying until it snaps in completely.

My guess is that you cranked it up to high. Try stopping before you reach the very top and then backing the crank off, as it advises in the instructions.

push down to remove cover and slide it off. Let me know if you still have trouble.

You may have cross treaded the top. Easy to do, remove the top set it on top again, back it up like you are taking it off very slowly. You will fill a slight click when it lines up properly. now tighten.

This is the most annoying thing about this item. It is because the top isn't on precisely the way it should be. When I first got it, I kept playing with it and playing with it, trying to make the 'F' go away. It didnt. Eventually, I just pushed the water container and main console together a few times and it went away. But it probably kept blinking 'F' for the first couple of weeks because I just couldn't fit it together right. Now, if it comes up, I do as mentioned above and it goes away right away. Good luck.

I think you should fold it down flat, press down on the edges while turning counter clockwise and it should come apart. It may take a few tries to get it back together, but be patient. Good luck!

I con't know why that particular thing happened, but I had a hard time putting the back on. It kept coming off and I finally just took the whole apparatus down and started over. It finally worked. I suggest you take the whole thing down and re-assemble. This chair is not very comfortable. Be careful when you bend over to pick up something from the floor from a sitting position. If you are on a slick or hardwood floor, the wheels are very quick to roll and the chair can tip over and roll out from under you abruptly - dumping you on the floor.

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!

I had the *exact* same issue. I learned by tapping the unit on the side until the handle jiggles up and down makes it much easier to then simply lift the handle off the top. **UPDATE Fe b 20th** Nevermind, it has now become almost impossible to remove the handle. I now loathe trying to remove the top since it could take anywhere from 3 minutes - 10 minutes... along with a bruised palm of my hand.

That's odd. Mine comes off almost too easily! I just lift it off the top. Sounds like you got a fit that's not within specs!

Mine didn't initially want to go on, but I pressed down on it, hard, and screwed it in place at the same time. Two things, make sure that you tighten it in a clockwise direction looking down on it, and firmly grasp the section just below where you're screwing the end cap on so that you don't accidentally bow or break the handle. I hope that's of some help.
