Operating Instructions
Sitting on the Kneeling Chair
To use the kneeling chair, position yourself with your buttocks on the upper seat cushion and your shins resting comfortably on the lower knee cushion. This angled design naturally encourages an upright posture, aligning your spine and distributing weight effectively.
Figure 3: Proper Seating Position. The user's back is straight, and weight is distributed between the seat and knee cushions.
Height Adjustment
The DRAGONN kneeling chair features an adjustable height mechanism, ranging from 21 inches to 28 inches. To adjust the height, locate the adjustment lever or knob (typically found beneath the seat or along the frame). Loosen the mechanism, set the chair to your desired height, and then securely tighten it. Ensure the chair is stable after adjustment.

Mobility
Equipped with four caster wheels, the chair allows for smooth movement across various floor surfaces. Some models may include locking casters for stationary use. To lock the wheels, press down on the lever located on each locking caster. To unlock, lift the lever.
Maintenance
- Cleaning: To clean the chair, wipe surfaces with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that may damage the material.
- Regular Checks: Periodically inspect all screws and bolts to ensure they remain tight. Retighten as needed to maintain stability and safety.
Troubleshooting
Discomfort During Initial Use
It is common to experience some initial discomfort when transitioning to a kneeling chair, as it engages different muscle groups and promotes a new posture. Begin by using the chair for short periods and gradually increase usage time as your body adapts. Ensure the chair's height is adjusted correctly for your body and desk setup.
Knee/Shin Discomfort
If you experience discomfort in your knees or shins, verify that the knee cushion is positioned correctly and that your weight is evenly distributed between the seat and knee pads. Adjusting the chair's height can also impact the angle and pressure on your shins. Consider adding extra padding if needed, or take frequent breaks to stand and stretch.
Chair Instability
If the chair feels unstable, check all assembly bolts and ensure they are tightened securely. Make sure the chair is on a flat, even surface. If equipped with locking casters, ensure they are properly engaged or disengaged as desired.
