2. Insert the Telescopic Pole: Insert the telescopic support pole into the main stand's central column. Secure it using the quick-release lever on the main stand.
3. Attach the Tool Tray: Slide the tool tray onto the telescopic support pole at your desired height. Secure it by tightening the provided screw.

5. Operating Instructions

5.1 Adjusting Height

To adjust the height of the stand, loosen the quick-release lever on the main stand's central column. Raise or lower the telescopic support pole to your desired working height (adjustable from 42.5" to 74.8"). Securely tighten the quick-release lever once the desired height is reached.

5.2 Clamping Your Bicycle

The 360° swivel clamp allows you to position your bike at any angle. Loosen the red knob on the clamp arm to rotate the clamp. Open the quick-release clamp jaws to fit your bicycle's frame tube (suitable for 1"-1.6" / 25-40 mm diameter). The rubber material on the clamp protects your bike's paint. Once the bike is in place, close the quick-release clamp and tighten the red knob to secure the bicycle firmly.
