Adjust and Test the Wheel Lock

What happens here
With the "Power-Locker" wheel lock now securely mounted, roll your lawn care equipment into it. The wheel lock features an adjustable mechanism (visible as a knob being turned at 0:05 and discussed at 0:37-0:43 in the video) that allows for a precise fit around the equipment's tire. Adjust this mechanism so that the wheel is held firmly and snugly in place, ideally allowing for less than an eighth of an inch of vertical play to prevent any movement during transport. Finally, test the quick-release lever (demonstrated at 0:05-0:07) to ensure it operates smoothly and effectively releases the wheel, confirming the system is both secure and user-friendly.
Goal: Confirm the wheel lock securely holds the equipment and functions properly.
