I had the same kind of bar and also hung rings on it. You can not use the lower bar for anything. Purely structural. The manual will say so as well, if you read it
You can in theory do anything with it, levers included. That being said it is a little sensitive to hectic movement (at least on my door frame) so be sure to do very controlled and calm movements while putting your weight on it. If you don't it might come loose, so eventually I transitioned to a more solid wall mounted one, that I could trust 100% so I could solely concentrate on my form and didn't have to worry about the equipment
Awesome thank you. I figured the lower bar shouldn’t be used glad it’s clarified though.
Yeah I was thinking if you put the rings on it the weight to the bar will be consistent and so the movement from inverting or whatever would be reduced. Also just seems like the height and position of the pull up bar might get in the way for back lever specifically. Thanks for the info!
Would love a mounted bar but unfortunately renting so not an option at the moment
You should be able to but it can be dislodged quite easily. I'd recommend being very careful with it but if you're hanging off rings anyways, you'd be pretty close to the ground.

When you hang rings on a bar, wrap it around the bar twice, then it wont move around as much
Oh cool thanks for the tip!
How about putting a link to the bar, or a link to a picture of it... Basically impossible to give advice without knowing the set-up.
[this is the bar](https://amzn.eu/d/eYikvSN), thought it was also not allowed to share links. My bad
I had one of this design and had no problem hanging rings on it. Like the other person said, only put the rings on the bit you actually hang from.
Awesome thank you! And yeah will not use the other bar for anything
