Their eating the dogs

Wear a life jacket you nutcase.

This video was like watching paint dry.

Another tip is to get some big channel locks. Put a rag around the pedestal to somewhat protect it, then try twisting the pedestal back and forth. Helped me one time.

I'm get ready to do this myself... Who is gonna take their seats out and put them up for the winter , On a sixteen foot bass boat ....we use covers and tarps ha

Put grease down in the hole.

Iooked like a monkey having relations with a football for the first time. Keep her lubes up next time.

So, I drilled a hole through my post and use an electric winch in my shed to remove it. And for the wankers (Springfield), we don’t have an off season in Australia. Mate, you’re right, it’s Chinese junk 🤬👹

The real question is why aren’t the masses smart enough to to lubricate it with anti seize before inserting it?

Having this problem or really side affect for having non-wobbly seat pedestals, I solved it by installing split rings with a 60mm ID onto the seat pedestal about 1/2” above the base plate. Once installed, using a small pry bar or even screwdriver, the seat assembly lifts right out by prying upward on the split collar with one hand and gently pulling near the top of the pedestal back toward the pry bar side to balance pry forces. Easy peazy.

Dude…just unscrew the base 😂

When mine got stuck I just brought along the biggest, strongest fishing buddy and told him the beer cooler was under the seat.

Are you kidding me?

I have the same problem with mine. My front seat is stuck and it’s in my way when I try to use a cast net or fly rod. I may try this with the bottle jack that came with my Tacoma if it goes up high enough.

Ah

Waaa

Ah, the joys of boating.

After getting frustrated myself with the exact same problem and turning to RUclips, saw your video. I did mine with a bottle Jack and came out easily. Thanks for the idea. 👍

Hey how’s the etec been treating you?

This was a great solution. I’ve applied silicon to avoid this but it never works. Thanks for the video!

You didn't see it move slightly upwards as you were using the scissor jack? I saw it clearly move in your video, so you were making progress and eventually it would be free.

Never seize the base before reinstalling it❤️

I have the luck that the jack would have broken the bottom of the seat. Then I would have been angry at myself for not waiting until I got home to work on it.

Oh no! It looks like you ran into a rare problem that can occur with plug-in pedestals of any brand. Sorry you experienced so much frustration! If you want to prevent this problem from happening in the future, we recommend that you stow the pedestal when not in use. This is especially important during seasonal changes or when towing your boat. The reason the plug-in posts can jam up when they aren't regularly stowed is because the tolerance on the posts must meet a certain criteria to ensure safety and eliminate any wobbles. With that said, seasonal elements and stagnant moisture can cause expansion, which leads to unwanted jams. Another tip is to make sure the base is clean and clear of any debris prior to installation. We hope these tips help!

I don't understand these damn things and it's not just Springfield's. I see people's comments, but they've never used these. This man could have removed the whole thing, took it back to his bench vise, but when you plan on fishing.... "Anti-seize" works amazing, but keep a rag close by it has a tendency to find itself everywhere and you won't know how it got there :-/ Well I have one myself I have to get after arrgh! UPDATE: OK, it's a few minutes later and it's out. Mine are the 3/4" EZ-Swivel and they wedge in so tight. I pulled the seat and clamped my locking-pliers (vise grips) on the post to use it as a lever. Pushed & pulled a few times and it began to spin. Success. I know this is not the same seat post is this gentleman's but this was the only video I found. I hope this helps.

He did so many things wrong had to know where to start, first learn how to use jack, but shouldn’t have to use jack at all

Yeh, but they made a hell of a virus

Its the best motor bro ....

People like this amaze my of how smart I am. Take the floor bracket off and put it in a vise, and figure out what wrong with it. Probably just needs lube. Had to use heat on my bracket it slid right off.

Unless there is something wrong with mine. Should I just not put the bobbin in?

They charge when they simply get wet

Bitch a little more why don’t you, putz.

Thanks! Used a floor jack. Worked great. Now greasing the poles. Lol

Anwsome motor 😎

That is the dumbest thing I have ever seen. the seen is cocked sideways which is making it even harder to come out. Be a man and grab that thing and pull straight up. then put some drislide lube on it.

What prop size mate

dick head

Wish I had that 4 minutes back

Use drill with jack crank to raise and lower jack

*Lightweight, good fit, easy to use with highback kayak or SUP>>>**allabout.wiki/vbg3** I love all the pockets things stay very secure, and I can hold a ton of stuff. Zipper works well, seems to be a bit of a low quality zipper but so far so good.*

This happens to my pedestal seats all the time. I get sick of having to remove them completely from the floor just to get the pole out! It’s absolutely ridiculous. This actually stared happening to me a year after buying my bass tracker band new! I even took the poles out and sanded on them some where they insert in to the floor. It helped some. Might have to try sanding them down a little more.

A big screwdriver would work better then a crowbar.

Next time use a dub of motorkote. No, not an engine oil! Motorkote, and seat will come off much easier

This guy is an absolute moron! Unbolt it from the floor spray it with some liquid wrench and tap it off with a rubber mallet!!

Probably wouldn't hurt to put a little lube on them before putting the base tube back in the next time.

You use a flathead screwdriver and pry the button in. Then you hit it With the hammer handle a few times around it and then she pops out. Don't bash a company because you don't lube your seats man.

Next time work smarter, not harder. Unscrew the base from the floor and remove entire assembly - seat/post/base. Then tap the base off with a mallet instead of fighting with it...works every time. Youre welcome.

All inflatables will inflate with moisture except those with an HIT inflator ! They operate under hydrostatic pressure!

oops
