Problem
Dumbbell handle does not fully insert into base
when no plates are selected (handle has no
plates attached).
Dumbbell handle does not fully insert into base
when plates are selected (handle has plates
attached).
Adjustment knob will not turn while handle is
in base.
Troubleshooting
Solution
1. Make certain that both adjustment knobs are set directly to
the number 4.
1. Check to see if you have selected different weights on each side of
the dumbbell (for example one adjustment knob is set to 4 and the
other is set to 7). If this is the case, you must replace the dumbbell
in the base with the same orientation from which it was withdrawn.
This is to allow the plates to settle back into the correct and vacant
openings in the base.
2. Verify that the plates not selected (those plates remaining in the
dumbbell base) are in their correct spots and have not been moved
to a different support slot. This may be blocking the dumbbell from
fitting back into the base.
1. Check to assure that the dumbbell handle is fully depressed into the
dumbbell base. If not fully depressed, the locking mechanism will not
be released and may be keeping the adjustment knobs from rotating.
2. Check to see if any weight plates have been forced into the base
assembly backwards with the "support tongue" facing the grip of
the dumbbell handle. All weight plates must have the locking tab
facing away from the grip of the dumbbell handle.
3. Check to see if there is any dirt, debris or other obstruction in the
dumbbell base. You may need to remove the weight plates from the
base to accomplish this check. Remember to put each weight plate
back in its appropriate location.
