“I can’t get my C-Tug cross beams apart!”

Separating your C-Tug canoe & kayak cart cross beams is a simple process once you have been shown how. The below video demonstrates this fully, here are a couple of things to note. 

• If your kickstand has not been aligned correctly the beams may jam which will require more force to release them. To avoid this simply make sure the kickstand locator is engaged in its position before joining the cross beams.  
• There may be a build-up of sand, salt or dust between them that makes them hard to separate.
• When new your C-Tug cross beams may need to be joined and separated a few times to release more freely. In the case where they are a little tight or jammed simply use a solid object like a fence, kayak, tree etc this will allow you to apply more pressure to release them. 

Hold wheel axles – apply forward pressure with the knee at the same time as pulling on the axles

To avoid the cross beams jamming ensure the kickstand is positioned correctly into the locator
