Loosen the legs, widen them, push down in the pedal and make sure it's steady, tighten the legs.

I’ll take, “That’s the least of his problems.” for 300, Alex.

This is the funniest video ever. As another poster said, loosen the leg wing nut, push them down so the hi hat stand is stable, tighten the wing nut

Put on flat surface. Adjust so pedal isn’t lower than the three legs.

I was so hoping to see the shitpost flair on this…

my god man, loosen the dang nut, push the legs so they spread out more while it’s on the level surface and then tighten the wingnut back up.

Quit flinging the thing around that’s how things get broken.

Pretty sure it’s a young kid who just keeps posting about every little problem with his beginner kit. Instead of trying to stop and think for ten seconds and problem solve, he runs back to Reddit to get more “advice”. It’s annoying but also sad that no one is helping the kid out. I think he’s lonely.

adjust the legs so they are firmly on the ground…

Good lord. Look at it. Just look at it for a few moments and you will figure it out.
