- Locking Sections: Ensure all sections are fully extended and the metal button snaps into place, securing the cane firmly.

4. Operating Instructions
Using your HONEYBULL Walking Stick correctly ensures maximum stability and safety:
- Proper Height: When standing upright, the top of the cane handle should reach your wrist crease. Your elbow should have a slight bend (approximately 15-20 degrees) when holding the handle.
- Walking with the Cane:
- Hold the cane in the hand opposite to your weaker leg.
- Move the cane forward simultaneously with your weaker leg.
- Step through with your stronger leg.
- Free-Standing Feature: The unique pivot base allows the cane to stand upright on its own when not in use, preventing it from falling over and keeping it within easy reach.

6. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Cane feels unstable or wobbly. | Sections not fully locked; height adjustment not engaged; worn rubber tips. | Ensure all sections are snapped into place. Re-adjust height to ensure the button is fully engaged. Inspect and replace worn rubber tips. |
| Difficulty folding/unfolding the cane. | Sections are stiff or misaligned. | Gently wiggle sections to align. Ensure no debris is caught in the joints. Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant if necessary (avoid oil-based lubricants). |
