Telescopic arms won't lock in place

Check for any debris on the telescopic arms. Ensure the locking mechanism is fully disengaged before adjusting and then firmly re-engaged after setting the desired angle.

Setup: To attach the Middle Spreader, align it with the middle section of the compatible tripod legs.
