4. Setup and Assembly
The DORTALA Dining Chairs are designed for straightforward assembly. Each chair consists of a molded seat and a pre-assembled leg frame. Follow these steps to assemble each chair:
- Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging. Lay them out on a soft, clean surface to prevent scratches.
- Identify Parts: Locate one chair seat, one leg frame, and the assembly hardware (screws, washers) from the hardware bag.
- Align Seat and Frame: Place the chair seat upside down. Align the pre-assembled leg frame with the mounting points on the underside of the seat. Ensure the frame is oriented correctly, with the wider part of the frame facing the front of the seat.
- Attach Frame: Insert the four screws with washers through the holes in the leg frame and into the corresponding threaded inserts on the chair seat.
- Tighten Screws: Using the provided Allen wrench, gradually tighten all four screws. Tighten them in a cross pattern (e.g., front-left, rear-right, front-right, rear-left) to ensure even pressure. Do not overtighten.
- Final Check: Once all screws are tightened, turn the chair upright. Gently test its stability. If any wobbling occurs, re-check all connections and tighten as necessary.

6. Maintenance
Proper maintenance will extend the lifespan and preserve the appearance of your DORTALA Dining Chairs.
- Cleaning: Wipe clean with a damp cloth. For stubborn stains on the plastic seat, use a mild soap solution and then wipe dry. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the material.
- Wood Care: The beech wood legs can be wiped with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid excessive moisture.
- Regular Inspection: Periodically check all screws and connections to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten if any looseness is detected.
- Avoid Direct Sunlight: Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight may cause fading or material degradation over time.
7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your DORTALA Dining Chairs, refer to the following common solutions:
- Chair Wobbles:
- Ensure all four screws connecting the seat to the leg frame are fully and evenly tightened.
- Verify that the chair is placed on a flat, even surface.
- Check if any of the non-slip foot pads are missing or unevenly installed.
- Difficulty during Assembly:
- Review the assembly steps in Section 4 carefully. Ensure the leg frame is oriented correctly before attaching the seat.
- Do not force screws. If a screw does not easily thread, re-align the parts.
- Scratches on Floor:
- Confirm that all non-slip foot pads are securely attached to the bottom of each leg. Replace any worn or missing pads.
