Troubleshooting

The ground spike is difficult to screw into the ground.

Moisten the ground with water to soften the soil. Use the turning rod to apply steady, even pressure.

The pole wobbles after installation.

Ensure the ground spike is fully and securely installed. Check the pole diameter to confirm it's compatible with the spike.

The closure cap is lost.

While the closure cap isn't essential for functionality, it's recommended for aesthetics and to prevent debris from entering the spike. Contact customer service for a replacement.
