I had it on four stands, had just put the back wheels back on & was letting it slowly down when I could see the front stands starting to tip forward so twisted the handle of the jack to stop but it just kept going :(

Maybe I should have put the front wheels on before letting the back down!

just gonna scrap it now I think! :(
