- Difficulty adjusting cushion: Ensure the adjustment knob is fully pulled out before attempting to change the angle. Check for any obstructions in the adjustment mechanism.
- Squeaking noises: Apply a small amount of silicone lubricant to pivot points or moving parts if squeaking occurs. Ensure all bolts are tight.
