Setup and Assembly

Assembly typically takes approximately 30 minutes. Two people are recommended for easier assembly.

1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging. Lay them out on a soft, clean surface to prevent scratches.
2. Assemble Glider Base: Follow the diagrams provided in the hardware pack to connect the glider's base components. Ensure all bolts are finger-tightened initially.
3. Attach Backrest and Armrests: Secure the backrest to the glider base. Then, attach the armrests, ensuring the side pockets are correctly oriented.
4. Tighten All Fasteners: Once all frame components are in place, use the provided Allen wrench to fully tighten all bolts. Do not overtighten.
5. Install Cushions: Place the seat and back cushions onto the glider frame. Secure them using any ties or fasteners provided. Attach the arm cushions.
6. Ottoman: The ottoman typically comes pre-assembled. If not, follow the specific instructions for its assembly.

Operating Instructions

The Storkcraft Premium Hoop Glider & Ottoman is designed for smooth, comfortable motion.

• Gliding Motion: Gently push off the floor with your feet to initiate the smooth forward-and-back gliding motion. The glider features enclosed metal ball bearings for consistent movement.
• Ottoman Use: The accompanying ottoman glides in sync with the chair, providing coordinated leg support.
• Side Pockets: Utilize the integrated side storage pockets on the arm cushions to keep small items such as books, remote controls, or baby essentials within easy reach.

Maintenance

Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your glider and ottoman.

• Cleaning: Spot clean cushions as needed. For the wood frame, wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Fastener Checks: Periodically check all bolts and screws to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten if necessary to maintain stability and prevent squeaking.
• Environmental Conditions: Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or extreme temperature changes, which can affect the wood finish and fabric.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your glider, consider the following:

• Squeaking Noise: Ensure all assembly bolts are securely tightened. A small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the metal ball bearings if squeaking persists, but avoid oil-based lubricants.
• Unstable Gliding: Verify that the glider is placed on a flat, even surface. Recheck all connections for tightness.
• Cushion Shifting: Ensure cushions are properly secured with their ties or fasteners to prevent movement during use.
