We’re sorry to hear you’re experiencing issues with your Flagpole. Below are some common situations we’ve heard about and our recommended solutions.
Section(s) are locked in place –
There is a good chance there is dust or debris inside the locking mechanism. We know that if the pole is new it seems unlikely, but even with new poles it can still happen.
If you take a hose and spray the water inside the section around the collar, that will help to clear it out by pushing the dirt or anything else out of the way, and it shouldn't have a problem locking after it dries.
Then try:
- Spray WD-40 around the friction locking ring.
- Get help to twist it
- Use some strap wrenches.
