Operating Instructions and Adjustments
1. Adjustable Seat Height
The chair's seat height can be adjusted to accommodate various desk heights and user preferences. This feature allows the chair to be used effectively with standing desks, sit-to-stand desks, and bar tables.
To raise the seat: While standing, pull the lever located under the seat upwards. The seat will rise automatically. Release the lever at the desired height.
To lower the seat: While seated, pull the lever upwards. The seat will lower. Release the lever at the desired height.

2. Adjustable Foot Ring
The foot ring provides support for your feet, reducing pressure on the back of your legs and promoting better circulation, especially when using the chair at higher settings.
To adjust the foot ring height: Loosen the knob located on the side of the foot ring support pole. Slide the foot ring up or down to your preferred position. Tighten the knob firmly to secure the foot ring in place.

3. Flip-Up Arms
The flip-up armrests offer flexibility, allowing you to move closer to your desk for optimal posture or to tuck the chair under the desk to save space when not in use.
To flip up the arms: Grasp the armrest and rotate it upwards until it locks into a vertical position.
To lower the arms: Gently pull the armrest downwards until it returns to its horizontal position.

4. Tilt Mechanism and Tension
The chair features a BIFMA-tested tilt mechanism, allowing you to recline the backrest and adjust the tilt tension for personalized comfort.
To recline: Pull the lever (often the same as the height adjustment lever, but pulled outwards) to unlock the tilt function. Lean back to recline. Push the lever inwards to lock the backrest in an upright position.
To adjust tilt tension: Rotate the round knob located under the seat, usually at the front. Turn clockwise to increase tension (making it harder to recline) or counter-clockwise to decrease tension (making it easier to recline).
5. Breathable Mesh and High-Quality Cushion
The chair is constructed with a breathable mesh back and a high-density sponge cushion, designed for comfort and air circulation during prolonged use.

Maintenance and Care
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your HYLONE Drafting Chair.
Cleaning: Wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners that may damage the mesh, fabric, or frame.
Inspection: Periodically check all screws and bolts to ensure they are tight. Retighten if necessary to maintain stability.
Casters: Clean casters regularly to remove dust, hair, and debris that may hinder smooth rolling. For optimal performance on hard floors, consider replacing standard casters with rubberized versions if needed.
Gas Lift: If the gas lift begins to sink or does not hold height, contact customer support for assistance.
Troubleshooting
Here are solutions to common issues you might encounter with your drafting chair:
Chair Sinks or Does Not Hold Height: This is typically due to a faulty gas lift cylinder. Contact HYLONE customer service for a replacement. Ensure you are within the warranty period.
Casters Do Not Roll Smoothly: Check for debris (hair, dust, carpet fibers) wrapped around the caster wheels. Clean them thoroughly. If the issue persists, the casters may be worn and require replacement.
Chair Feels Wobbly: Ensure all assembly screws, particularly those connecting the seat, backrest, and arms, are securely tightened. Periodically check and retighten all fasteners.
Difficulty Adjusting Tilt Tension: Ensure the tilt lock lever is disengaged (pulled outwards). The tension knob should turn freely. If the knob is stripped or stuck, it may require replacement. Refer to the manual for correct rotation direction (clockwise to tighten, counter-clockwise to loosen).
Armrests Do Not Flip Up/Down Smoothly: Check for any obstructions in the hinge mechanism. Apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant if movement is stiff.
