3. Package Contents

Before assembly, verify that all parts are present and undamaged. Each set includes two dining chairs and the necessary hardware for assembly.

Typical Components Per Chair:

• 1 x Chair Backrest
• 1 x Seat Base
• 2 x Front Legs
• 2 x Back Legs
• Hardware Pack (screws, washers, Allen wrench)

Note: The exact number and type of screws may vary slightly. Refer to the included instruction sheet in your package for precise details.

4. Setup and Assembly

Assembly is straightforward and typically requires one person. It is recommended to assemble the chairs on a soft, clean surface to prevent scratching the floor or the chair components.

Assembly Steps:

1. Identify Components: Separate the long screws from the short screws. Typically, the longer screws are used for attaching the back legs to the seat base, and shorter screws are for the front legs.
2. Attach Front Legs: Carefully align the front legs with the designated holes on the underside of the seat base. Insert the appropriate screws (usually shorter ones) and hand-tighten them initially. Do not fully tighten yet.
3. Attach Back Legs: Align the back legs with the holes on the underside of the seat base. Insert the appropriate screws (usually longer ones). For the back of the chair, if there are five holes, insert all five screws (four long, one short) a little bit at a time, alternating between them. This helps ensure proper alignment and prevents stripping. Hand-tighten initially.
4. Level the Chair: Once all legs are loosely attached, place the chair upright on a flat, level surface. Apply gentle pressure to the seat to ensure all four legs make even contact with the floor.
5. Final Tightening: While the chair is on a level surface, carefully tighten all screws using the provided Allen wrench. Avoid over-tightening to prevent damage to the wood.

Tip: For optimal stability, ensure the seat and backrest are level before fully tightening all screws. Using a power drill is not recommended as it can easily over-tighten and damage the components.

6. Maintenance

Cleaning Instructions:

• For general cleaning, wipe the chairs with a clean, damp cloth.
• For spills or stains on the polyester fabric upholstery, promptly blot the area with a clean, dry cloth. For tougher stains, a mild fabric cleaner can be used, following the product's instructions and spot-testing in an inconspicuous area first.
• Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the fabric and wood finish.
• Regular vacuuming with an upholstery attachment can help remove dust and debris.

General Care:

• Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten as necessary to maintain the chair's structural integrity.
• Protect the chair legs from floor damage by using felt pads, especially on hard floors.

7. Troubleshooting

Wobbling Chair:

If your chair wobbles after assembly, it is likely due to uneven tightening of the leg screws. To resolve this:

1. Loosen all screws connecting the legs to the seat base.
2. Place the chair on a flat, level surface.
3. Apply gentle, even pressure to the seat to ensure all four legs are firmly on the ground.
4. While maintaining pressure, gradually tighten all screws, starting with the middle ones and then moving to the corners.

Stains on Fabric:

Refer to the cleaning instructions in the Maintenance section. Prompt action is key to successful stain removal.
