Can the tines be turned with gentle hand pressure when it is off? My tines seem to be locked.

The tines on mine are not movable. I believe this is normal due to the gearing.

No, the tines are not movable. They are not locked, but the drive will not allow the shaft to easily rotate.

Don't know what sound yours is making, but I would make sure that the tines are clear from anything that could be wrapped around them, and make sure the housing is tight. I have not had any problems with mine at all. Definitely call the company if it continues.

I would not try to do so. The top is slightly oval and the second one would slide. When I use it, I make sure to hold the handle with one hand and the bottom with the other. it does lock but I would hate to waste a pie!

unscrew the yellow locking device . if that dose not work ,I would take the tool apart and look for a burr inside the unit.

As I recall you do slide one off but you just haveto depress the pins to do so. I know I didn'thave to unscrew anything. Hope this helps!

Yes you can. Just remove the thumb knob, and lift the set off the cone shaped pin on the arm.

So from the top - unplug the dremel, push and hold the metal pin to lock it. Twist the black metal piece, the collet nut (you might need a wrench if its tight) and then to remove the collet, which is what I believe you are asking about - I just grab mine with my fingers and twist it out. You could use pliers but its soft metal (ideally you won't need it anymore I guess) I hope this helps.

There's a black plastic lock release switch that you need to slide while you squeeze the handles. It's a bit difficult at first, but after you've broken them in, it locks and unlocks pretty easily.

You should be able to unscrew the top part (the cap and carabiner are basically the cap). Just give a firm twist counter-clockwise.

no. you don't have a good way of holding the correct angle on the tool. If you don't need a perfect angle, you might be able to free hand it.

It sounds like it is in a locked position. Twist the top stem part, until it releases, and is able to push down.

Thank you for your question! While it doesn't "lock", it should be able to be twisted until it is closed very tightly. If yours is loose or seems to come unscrewed after light usage, please call our Customer Care Center at 1-800-732-2677.

The tines are removeable but not adjustable, you may take them off for a smaller till or wider till on ends but it will be better if you keep them equal for balance of tiller, in other words take off end tines and leave center tines or take off center tines but leave end tines.

Turn it over twisted it, pushed it up and twisted it again to lock it. Hope this helps.

You use an allen wrench to attach the nub. You could simply unscrew it and remove it if you aren't going to use the lock anymore.

On occasion I will have a problem getting mine to twist to unlock. I have not found a sure fire trick that will unlock it but find it is easier if I do not screw on the foam piece first and did use pliers to get a better grip when I just could not get it to turn. After the first time it happened and I didn't think I would ever get it unlocked now when putting it away I turn it just enough to catch the lock. If you can't get it open send it back as defective and get a replacement.

I used some pliers. They are very tight. I had to tare off a chunk of it and keep pulling on it until it finally came off. Good luck.
