Operating Your Chair
The AreShark MC02 chair offers multiple adjustment options to customize your seating experience.
Seat Height Adjustment
Use the lever located under the right side of the seat to adjust the chair's height. Pull the lever up to raise the seat; release it at your desired height. To lower, sit on the chair, pull the lever up, and release when the seat reaches the desired position. The 3-stage gas lift system allows for a 4-inch seat height adjustment, with a range of 18.5" to 22.5".

Lumbar Support Adjustment
The dynamic lumbar support can be adjusted vertically by 2 inches to perfectly align with your spine's natural curve, reducing lower back fatigue. Locate the knob on the backrest and rotate it to move the lumbar support up or down.

Tilt Function
The chair features a 30° tilt mechanism, allowing you to recline from 90° upright to 120° relaxed. Pull the lever (same as height adjustment) outwards to unlock the tilt, and push it inwards to lock the chair in an upright position. A tension-adjustable knob under the seat allows you to control the resistance of the recline.

Flip-Up Armrests
The armrests can be flipped up to 90 degrees, allowing the chair to be stored completely under most desks, saving space. When down, they provide soft elbow support.

Care and Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your AreShark MC02 Office Chair, follow these simple care instructions:
- Cleaning: Wipe all surfaces with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners, harsh chemicals, or solvents, as these may damage the mesh or other materials.
- Inspection: Periodically check all screws and bolts to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten if necessary.
- Casters: Keep the casters free of debris (hair, dust, etc.) to ensure smooth rolling.
- Mesh: For the breathable mesh, a soft brush or vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment can be used to remove dust.
Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your AreShark MC02 Office Chair, please refer to the following common solutions:
- Chair not adjusting height: Ensure the gas lift lever is fully engaged or disengaged as required. Check if the gas lift cylinder is correctly installed in the base and seat mechanism.
- Chair wobbles: Verify that all assembly screws are securely tightened. Ensure the casters are fully inserted into the star base.
- Casters not rolling smoothly: Check for any hair or debris caught in the caster wheels and remove them.
- Backrest/Lumbar support feels loose: Re-check the screws connecting the backrest to the seat and ensure the lumbar adjustment knob is tightened.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, please contact customer support.
