4. Assembly Instructions

The TecTake Racing Office Chair is designed for quick and straightforward assembly. Please ensure all components are present before beginning.

4.1 Unpacking

1. Carefully remove all components from the packaging.
2. Verify that all parts listed in the included assembly guide are present and undamaged.

4.2 Step-by-Step Assembly

Refer to the detailed assembly instructions provided in the box. General steps typically include:

1. Attach the castors to the chair base.
2. Insert the gas lift cylinder into the base.
3. Secure the seat mechanism to the underside of the seat cushion.
4. Attach the armrests to the seat. Note that armrests may be side-specific; ensure correct orientation.
5. Connect the backrest to the seat and armrests. This step may require some force to align holes due to the curved design.
6. Place the assembled seat and backrest onto the gas lift cylinder.

Tip: For attaching the backrest to the seat, it may be easier with two people or by positioning the seat on a stable surface with the backrest hanging to apply necessary pressure for screw alignment.

5. Operating Instructions

Your TecTake Racing Office Chair offers several adjustable features to customize your seating experience.

5.1 Height Adjustment

To adjust the chair's height:

1. To raise the chair: Lift the lever located under the right side of the seat while taking your weight off the seat. The chair will rise automatically.
2. To lower the chair: Lift the lever located under the right side of the seat while seated. The chair will lower under your weight.
3. Release the lever to lock the chair at the desired height.

5.2 Tilt Mechanism

The chair features an adjustable tilt mechanism for reclining:

1. To enable tilt: Pull the same lever used for height adjustment outwards.
2. To lock the chair in an upright position: Push the lever inwards.

The tension of the tilt mechanism can often be adjusted by a knob located under the front of the seat. Turn clockwise to increase tension (making it harder to tilt) and counter-clockwise to decrease tension (making it easier to tilt).

6. Maintenance

Proper care and maintenance will extend the life of your TecTake Racing Office Chair.

6.1 Cleaning

• For general cleaning, wipe the chair with a damp cloth.
• Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, or solvents, as these can damage the synthetic leather and mesh fabric.
• For spills, blot immediately with a clean, dry cloth.

6.2 Periodic Checks

• Periodically check all screws and bolts to ensure they are tight. Retighten if necessary to maintain stability and safety.
• Inspect the castors for any debris (hair, lint) that might hinder smooth movement. Clean as needed.
• Ensure the gas lift operates smoothly. If it becomes stiff or inconsistent, contact customer support.

7. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your chair, refer to the following common problems and solutions.

7.1 Chair Sinks or Does Not Hold Height

• Cause: Gas lift cylinder malfunction or lever not fully engaged.
• Solution: Ensure the height adjustment lever is fully released after setting the height. If the issue persists, the gas lift cylinder may need replacement. Contact customer support.

7.2 Chair Wobbles

• Cause: Loose screws or uneven assembly.
• Solution: Check and tighten all assembly screws, especially those connecting the seat to the mechanism and the backrest to the seat/armrests. Ensure the chair is on a flat, even surface.

7.3 Castors Not Rolling Smoothly

• Cause: Debris caught in castors or damaged castors.
• Solution: Turn the chair over and carefully remove any hair, lint, or other debris from the castor wheels. If a castor is damaged, it may need replacement.
