Throw it away. Its a piece of junk. Screw driver flat bends when torgued in a stubborn screw. Good for household use only. Tips are weak and not tool steel.

We threw ours away (the "case" or "rack"), but there should be little tabs on each side you have to pop out to get it to open.

Remove the bungees immediately! Then get 2 bungee cords and cross them thru the handle on top of the rack. To remove, just unhook the bungees. Easy on, easy off.

Why would you need a lifter to take out all the jars at one time. I have been burned more than once by jars slipping off the rack while lifting. Personally, I prefer to take the jars out individually with a jar lifter than trying to take all of them out at once.

The Wheels where put in so they got to come out. Use a flat screw driver to pry out.

The screws on this are not allen head screws, they are what is called TORX head. So you need a torx screw driver for it and I'm not sure of the size though. They come in standard and metric. Just go to your local sears store pull one off of the rack tighten the screw put the driver back and head on.

push the sharp end in the slot. then push the sharp end down to the other side and move it up and away from the slot. there is a small bar under there that keeps it locked [look in the open end and you'll see the little bar].........it's kinda hard to explain. it'd be easier to "show and tell"!

No, you have to unscrew it. I preferred that for a little more theft deterance. Overall I love this rack

You have to just pull very hard. There is plastic locks that hold them in and if you put a lot of pulling pressure on them they will come out over the slot that holds them in.

I'm not sure what quick release hooks are. At the top the hooks are open at the bottom - to take it off the rack you just lift us.

Hi Laura,If I remember correctly you just use a screwdriver to tighten the bars but I found one of my dogs is smarter than I gave him credit for and he kept using his head to move the bar over and then get in the front seat. I solved the issue by taking black electrical tape and taping around the bar to make sure he could no longer move it.I hope this helped!!

To remove the rack from the car, you first release the safety pin by pulling outward. Then you unlock and unscrew a handle that loosens the expanding mechanism inside of the hitch receiver. At this point, the entire rack can be wiggled out of the receivet easily. When it comes out of the receiver, you have the full weight of the rack to carry so just be ready. You can get a good grip on the top of the unit as well as the swing away arm on the bottom. Of course never try to take it off with a bike attached or with it in the swung open position!

They do not slip off easily on the rack when it handing or if its not twirled around quickly...only usually if you yank one off in a hurry disrupting the others or if you take it off the bar to lay it over shirts while you are still holding it....for the price its amazing....would love to see one done with a touch longer arms/stainless, etc. but whoever invented this little gem is amazing....its amazing in its simplicity...try it and add the non stick stuff if you wish but they are packed tight enough together that they and the end hook dont let stuff SLIDE OFF....just dont grab a tie on the run and yank it off.....caio They do not slip off easily on the rack when it handing or if its not twirled around quickly...only usually if you yank one off in a hurry disrupting the others or if you take it off the bar to lay it over shirts while you are still holding it....for the price its amazing....would love to see one done with a touch longer arms/stainless, etc. but whoever invented this little gem is amazing....its amazing in its simplicity...try it and add the non stick stuff if you wish but they are packed tight enough together that they and the end hook dont let stuff SLIDE OFF....just dont grab a tie on... » Read More They do not slip off easily on the rack when it handing or if its not twirled around quickly...only usually if you yank one off in a hurry disrupting the others or if you take it off the bar to lay it over shirts while you are still holding it....for the price its amazing....would love to see one done with a touch longer arms/stainless, etc. but whoever invented this little gem is amazing....its amazing in its simplicity...try it and add the non stick stuff if you wish but they are packed tight enough together that they and the end hook dont let stuff SLIDE OFF....just dont grab a tie on the run and yank it off.....caio « Show Less

There's a hole in the side that's not for a button, take a screw driver or something and just gap it apart. the rest is just gently applying force until it separates. I haven't found a better way to do it.

To close the blades there is a button on the base of the blade . To close the screwdrivers there is a button about 1 in down from the base of the blade and the pliers just fold back up. It will be alittle stiff when new but it will breakin

I've taken similar ones apart before, all you need is a long small Phillips screwdriver. I just hope you had better luck with yours than I did, I didn't use it for a few weeks after I got it and after about two days it started making such a racket it was a joke, after I let it run for a few hours it works fine but as soon as I have time it's coming apart for an overhaul.

Tighten it until you cant tighten anymore. Use a good screwdriver which fits so that you dont strip the screws, but I have a double bar on one of mines and have 30 pairs of jeans on each bar and it does not slide down at all on me. I love these racks. Not to be funny but make sure whoever tightens it has good strength in their wrists. It should tighten for you and not slide. I have 44inch waist jeans also which outweigh the smaller sizes and yes 30 on each bar.

The rack does not pull the rack out. The door will stop where ever you stop opening the door, it can rest on the counter. One is able to remove the rack with no problem. I hope this helps you. I really like my Calphalon. Use it almost daily.
