Ensure when folded away, the arms will not come into contact with your vehicle or any other object, hooks, or screws or any other hazard that might disrupt the operation of the arm opening and closing
- Make sure that all connections and screws are secured tightly
- Because of EV Hover’s natural movement, some connections may loosen. It is recommended that you check the fasteners monthly and ensure they are secured. If they are loose, tighten.
