Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your ProtoArc EC200 Ergonomic Office Chair, regular maintenance is recommended.
- Cleaning: Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap to clean the mesh and fabric surfaces. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
- Inspection: Periodically check all screws and bolts to ensure they are tight. Re-tighten if necessary to maintain stability and safety.
- Caster Care: Keep the casters free of hair and debris to ensure smooth rolling.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your ProtoArc EC200 chair, please refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:

- Chair wobbles: Check all assembly screws, especially those connecting the base, armrests, and tilt mechanism, and tighten them securely.
- Casters not rolling smoothly: Inspect casters for trapped debris (hair, lint) and clean them thoroughly.
