Troubleshooting

Chair height adjustment is stiff or not working

Ensure the gas lift cylinder is properly seated and free of debris. Check that the weight limit is not exceeded. Try releasing pressure by sitting on the chair and engaging the lever, then try adjusting again.

Castors are not rolling smoothly

Inspect castors for hair, threads, or other debris. Carefully remove any obstructions. Clean the castors with a damp cloth and ensure they rotate freely.

Chair wobbles or feels unstable

Verify that all components are securely attached. Ensure the chair is on a level surface. Check the integrity of the chromed steel structure and the castor connections.

Seat or backrest has marks or stains

Use a mild soap and water solution with a soft cloth to gently clean the polypropylene. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers that could damage the finish.
