If you are having difficulty releasing the arms on your Roadmaster Sterling All Terrain Tow Bar # RM-576, it's very possible that there is some dirt and debris on the arms that is interfering with its function. Make sure the tow bar is clean by using a water-soluble cleaner to break down any road film and dirt. After the bar is completely clean, you will want to spray a dry silicone lubricant like # RM-747 into all moving parts. Flex all the components on the tow bar to make sure the lubricant gets worked in.

If this does not resolve the issue please let me know and I will be happy to look into this further.
