5.1. Height Adjustment

- To lower the seat: While seated, pull the control lever upwards. The seat will lower. Release the lever at the desired height.

5.2. Rocking Function
The chair features a rocking function for enhanced comfort and flexibility.
- To activate/deactivate rocking: Push the control lever (the same lever used for height adjustment) inwards to lock the chair in an upright position, or pull it outwards to enable the rocking motion.
- Adjusting Rocking Tension: A tension control knob is located under the front of the seat. Turn the knob clockwise to increase tension (making it harder to rock) or counter-clockwise to decrease tension (making it easier to rock).
The rocking function allows for a tilt range of 90-120 degrees.

The chair is equipped with 5 quiet casters that allow for a full 360-degree swivel motion, providing ease of movement around your workspace.

Proper care will extend the life of your chair.

- Hardware Check: Periodically check all screws and bolts to ensure they are tight. Retighten if any looseness is detected.
- Caster Care: Keep casters free of hair and debris to ensure smooth rolling.
