I am having issues raising the goal via the crank. Has anyone else seen this issue?

Mine has gotten a little tight. I try to put sicon spray on it. The crank can get messed up if yiu crank it past the 10ft mark or crank it lower than the lowest setting. Try to avoid that

Mine does the same thing sometimes off and on for quite a few years , I tore it apart but could not find anything wrong. just make sure the paddle is tight on the crank arm and that the crank arm is tight on bottom bracket stem. Internally it's fairly simple and strong, not much to go wrong.

I don't think I had the same problem. Use an appropriate sized bronze bushing or even a few washers on either side of the clutch-it doesn't matter really just make sure it doesn't slide around. Or you could cut the end of the crank shaft, but I wouldn't unless you know what you're doing.

I have the same problem. I've adjust every way I can think of but the steps only go up and down a couple of inches. I hope someone comes up with a solution.

You need to adjust the net. Spread the clips around evenly on the ring and keep adjusting what part of the net is attached to the clips until it is balanced. It is not easy to get right. :(

I am sorry you are having the problem. I use mine at least once a week, though didn't through much of winter. I take opposite ribs and pull out, which seems to get it started, then when comfortable raise it to the top pushing up on the ring around the post. I am really happy with mine and use it a lot. More questions? Please ask.

I've had this happen in the past. It's usually due to the magnet on the crank arm. Adjust it so that it is close enough. I find that if it's more than 1cm away from the magnet, it won't reliably pick up the signal.

Make sure goal posts are straight id they are out of alignment. Then simply re-tighten the anchoring strap.

I didn't realize you couldn't put more resistance on it than cycle at it's own pace. But, hey it's movement, and I know I'll be using it more than the one which requires you to cycle it. It just would have been nice to have the option, when you felt a little more energetic. Ha But I just got my machine today and I need to post a question, may not be the right place, but does anyone have one that stops moving periodically. Just wondering if this one has a short, or it just does that.

I have had no difficulty with raising it with the foot lever, however I am having difficulty lowering it.

Make sure all the tires are filled to the correct pressure as written on the tire. If this doesn't fix the prob I would contact baby jogger.

I have the 400P and have not had any problem bringing my psi up to levels. I did have to run the pressure over my goal so I don't lose too much disconnecting.

Linda: Sorry to hear you're having difficulty. Here are a few suggestions: 1st - Make sure the yarn is able to flow evenly so once you start to crank the winder, you don't have to stop. 2nd. Make sure the longest metal arm is in tightened down and is in a straight line to the hank of spinning yarn. 3rd. When you begin to crank, continue in the same clockwise direction, never stopping. 4th, the yarn should come off the hank at the same level as the winder, not below it and must flow smoothly. I found if I used my dominant hand to crank and my non-dominant hand to help guide the yarn from the "spinning hank", it worked better than just cranking the winder. My first attempt I had trouble with the crank, getting confused as to which direction I was spinning. Made a mess. I assume you are using something for the hank of yarn to spin on while you crank. Won't work without that. Hope this helped you. If you don't have an "umbrella" for the yarn, here's a suggestion:http://www.amazon.com/Stanwood-Needlecraft-Wooden-Umbrella-Winder/dp/B000IG1I8O/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1388088237&sr=8-2&keywords=yarn+winder

I have the same issue, it takes a little bit of finessing and turning to get it to sit level. It works really well.

You just really have to tighten it the best you can. I initially thought the same thing but I was able to tighten the seat and it does not move. The smallest crank makes a big difference. Good Luck!

I have the same problem with mine. The pentagon hole in the crank handle is slightly too big and/or the metal that the pentagon shaft is made out of is too soft. When you turn the crank, it slips forward on the shaft causing the handle to get stuck and slowly stripping the shaft until the grinder is no longer useable. It took about 3 months in my case.

Same problem here - I love the problem with your bike comment...mor pressure on the tire is not the solution. Every other Mag trainer I have seen has a resistance adjustment. Basically on the highest gear it is just getting enough resistance, and then the rear wheel is moving the equivalent of 30+ MPH... will return.
