Tri-axis height adjustment

[40Xshooter]

Just had the Tri-Axis bars installed on my '16 RT-S. The dealer is telling me that there is a lock nut that has to be loosened before the height can be adjusted. I was unaware of this. Does anyone else have to do this with their bars??

Thanks,

The dealer is feeding you a large line of BS. All you need to do is lift the rubber cap and insert the allen tool that came with the handlebar. It is stiff to rotate but that is by design. Do not loosen the locknut as the dealer said. Messing with the locknut and it's associated nut can create slope in the up/down movement of the handlebar. Also a bigger issue created by loosing the huts is the bolt can back out over time.
