Setup and Assembly

Assembly is required for this product. It is recommended that two adults perform the assembly to ensure stability and ease of construction. Follow the detailed assembly diagrams provided with your product packaging. A general overview of the steps is provided below:

1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove all parts from the packaging and lay them out on a clean, soft surface to prevent scratches. Verify all parts are present against the parts list in your product packaging.
2. Attach Legs and Frame: Securely attach the legs and main frame components using the provided hardware. Ensure all connections are aligned before tightening.
3. Install Armrests: Fasten the armrests to the main frame.
4. Assemble Backrest: Attach the adjustable backrest mechanism to the frame.
5. Attach Wheels: Secure the wheels to the designated leg assembly.
6. Final Tightening: Once all components are loosely assembled, gradually tighten all bolts and nuts.

Important Assembly Note: Exercise extreme caution when tightening fasteners. Some hardware may be prone to stripping if overtightened. Apply gentle, consistent pressure and stop immediately if resistance is met to prevent damage to bolts or nuts. Do not force connections.

Moving the Chaise Lounge

1. Slightly lift the front end of the chaise lounge.
2. Roll the chaise lounge to your desired location using the wheels.
3. Lower the front end to secure the lounge in place.

Maintenance

Cleaning

To clean your chaise lounge, use a mild soap and water solution. Wipe down the surfaces with a soft cloth. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and allow to air dry. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, brushes, or high-pressure washers, as these can damage the HDPE material.

Seasonal Care

While the HDPE material is weather-resistant, storing the chaise lounge indoors or covering it during extreme weather conditions (heavy snow, prolonged freezing temperatures) can help extend its lifespan and maintain its appearance.

Hardware Check

Periodically check all bolts and nuts to ensure they remain tight. Retighten as necessary, but avoid overtightening to prevent stripping.

Troubleshooting

• Difficulty Assembling: Ensure all parts are correctly oriented according to the assembly diagrams. Do not force connections. If hardware is difficult to thread, ensure it is aligned properly and not cross-threaded. If issues persist, contact customer support.
• Chaise Lounge is Unstable: Verify that all bolts and nuts are securely tightened. Ensure the chaise lounge is placed on a flat, even surface.
• Backrest Not Adjusting Smoothly: Check for any obstructions in the reclining mechanism. Ensure the mechanism is clean and free of debris.
