Operating Instructions
Your Mimoglad Drafting Chair features several adjustable components to customize your seating experience.
- Seat Height Adjustment: Locate the lever under the right side of the seat. To raise the seat, lift the lever while taking your weight off the seat. To lower the seat, lift the lever while seated. The pneumatic height adjustment mechanism allows for an 8-inch seat height adjustment (from 23.6" to 29.5" from seat to floor).
- Lumbar Support Adjustment: The adjustable lumbar support can be moved up and down by 1.57 inches to provide precise support for your lower back. Gently push or pull the lumbar support pad on the backrest to adjust its vertical position.
- Footrest Ring Height Adjustment: Loosen the knob on the side of the footrest ring to adjust its height. Once at the desired position, tighten the knob to secure it. The footrest ring offers a 6-inch height adjustment range.
- Flip-Up Armrests: The armrests can be flipped up by rotating them upwards, allowing the chair to be pushed closer to a desk or for easier entry/exit.
