Horizontal Wobble...

[Trick]

I just got out the box Powerizer M110s. i weight 100kg.

after the first use and an oiling to silence honk i went to sleep happy.

today there is some sort of wobble is i plant the hoof and try and move my leg side to side there is some give...

im not certain where so cant provide a photo.

any ideas. im tightening things but doesnt seem to help...

If you can't find anything on the PR's, maybe you should check you shoes if they are to big. It doesn't require much space in them for you to wobble, and that is a little space that you can't really tighten with the straps(PR original).

Maybe you should take a couple of photos of them anyway so that we can look and see if we see anything.

[Trick]

its a clicky wobble. got them off and can make em do it.

thinking maybe the stabliser bars.. is it the top or bottom nut which needs to be tightened first... pulling of pushing on the screw.

[zackiz]

Try that, but if you are going to skrew on the stableiserrods, be sure to do the same on both sides.

Is it both PR's that are clicking or is it only one?

[Trick]

both. and i just remembered i raised the knee pads last night... not that they connect to much else. and i tightened them again after.

[zackiz]

That maybe it.

On other thing(my theory only): If you raise the kneepads, raise the to the same level. The reason for that is that you will break in you springs "differently", doing that your feet's will be at diffrent levels"except when bottoming them both".

[Trick]

im thinking it might be the joint under the footpad...
going to try with pair of spanners so i can grip it properly... its a tiny movement but when im up its all multiplyed up by the length of the stilt. did NOT feel safe.

[zackiz]

What is spanners?

[Trick]

im not a tool guy... maybe not spanners.. the things that hold nuts still so you can tighten or losen them. wrench?

them anyway.

Spanner (British) = Wrench (American)

Great Britain and America, two countries divided by a common language.

According to Alta Vista's Babelfish, the German and Dutch words for this tool are:

Schraubenschlüssel

and

moersleutel

i suppose being better able to explain the problem does help... very glass half full thinking however.

[zackiz]

Im not very good in the english language, thats why I asked. I have looked it up and a wrench and a spanner is the same thing. There are alot of better tools to use but if you don't have anything else, use the spanner. The reason for that is that easily "rounding" the nuts if you are not careful.

Mabye you can send me a picture of your risers so i can more exactly tell you what tools you need(Im not sure if the use the same kind of screws on all risers).

[Trick]

hexaganal bolts... they feel pretty tight but still wobbles... could my bushings have screwed already? i read that happens eventually

[zackiz]

Yeah, that happends, but not this early unless they are defect.

Don't tighten them to much cause this causes the plastic to crack, if not now, so in the future. Be careful with that.

Well, If it wasn't that, I can't think of anything for the moment to help you if you don't put up some picture of your risers for us to look at. Sorry.
