4. Operating Instructions

Your Furmax office chair is designed with several adjustable features for optimal comfort:

Height Adjustment

To adjust the seat height, locate the lever on the right side, beneath the seat. While seated, pull the lever up to lower the seat. To raise the seat, lift the lever while standing or with minimal weight on the seat.

Tilt/Rocking Function

The chair features a tilt function for reclining. Pull the same lever outwards to enable the rocking motion. Push the lever inwards to lock the chair in an upright position. The tension of the rocking motion can be adjusted by twisting the round knob located under the seat.

5. Maintenance

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Furmax office chair, follow these maintenance guidelines:

• Cleaning: Wipe down plastic and metal parts with a soft, damp cloth. For mesh and fabric areas, use a mild upholstery cleaner or a vacuum with a brush attachment to remove dust and debris. Avoid harsh chemicals.
• Inspection: Periodically check all screws, bolts, and connections to ensure they are tight. Re-tighten if necessary.
• Caster Care: Keep casters free of hair and debris to ensure smooth rolling.
• Avoid Overloading: Do not exceed the maximum weight capacity of 240 pounds.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter any issues with your chair, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Chair does not stay at desired height: Ensure the gas lift cylinder is correctly installed and not damaged. If the issue persists, the gas lift may need replacement.
• Chair is unstable or wobbly: Check all assembly screws and bolts. Tighten any loose connections. Ensure the star base is fully engaged with the gas lift.
• Casters do not roll smoothly: Inspect casters for trapped debris (hair, lint, etc.) and clean them thoroughly. Ensure they are securely inserted into the star base.
• Backrest does not recline or lock: Verify that the tilt mechanism lever is correctly engaged or disengaged. Adjust the tilt tension knob if the rocking motion is too stiff or too loose.
