Adjusting Footrest Height
The footrest ring can be adjusted vertically along the gas lift cylinder. Loosen the knob or mechanism securing the footrest, slide it to the desired height, and then re-tighten the mechanism to secure it in place. Ensure the user's feet are comfortably supported.
Armrest Functionality
The armrests on this chair are designed to flip up. This feature allows the chair to be pushed closer to a desk or table when not in use, saving space. Simply lift the armrests upwards until they lock into their vertical position. To return them, pull them down.
Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the chair's plastic and mesh surfaces with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. For fabric parts, spot clean with a suitable upholstery cleaner.
- Inspection: Periodically check all screws and bolts for tightness. Re-tighten any loose fasteners to maintain stability and safety.
- Wheels: Keep the wheels free of hair, dust, and debris to ensure smooth rolling.
- Gas Lift: Do not attempt to disassemble the gas lift cylinder. If it malfunctions, contact customer support.
Troubleshooting
- Chair is wobbly after assembly:
- Ensure all screws, especially those connecting the backrest and armrests to the seat, are fully tightened. Check that the gas lift is properly seated in the base and seat mechanism.
- Seat height adjustment not working:
- Verify that the adjustment lever is fully engaged when pulled. Ensure there is no obstruction preventing the gas lift from moving. If the gas lift is faulty, it may need replacement.
- Wheels not rolling smoothly:
- Check for debris (hair, lint, dirt) caught in the wheel casters. Clean them thoroughly. Ensure the wheels are fully inserted into the chair base.
- Footrest slides down:
- Tighten the securing knob or mechanism on the footrest ring firmly. If it continues to slide, the mechanism may be worn or damaged.
