The Sealey SCR10 Mechanics Seat is designed for mechanics and DIY enthusiasts who need a comfortable and mobile seating solution in their workshop. Its key benefit is the gas-sprung height adjustment and smooth-rolling castors, allowing for easy repositioning and ergonomic working.

This seat offers a padded, swiveling cushion, adjustable height, and a convenient storage tray for tools and components, all gliding effortlessly on Ø60mm ball bearing castors.

Troubleshooting
Seat height won't adjust
Ensure the release lever is fully engaged. Check for obstructions around the gas spring mechanism. Verify the user's weight is within the specified capacity.
Castors are stiff or not rolling smoothly
Inspect castors for debris, hair, or thread buildup. Clean the castors thoroughly. If the issue persists, check for damage to the castor bearings.
Seat is unstable
Ensure all components are securely fastened. Check that the seat is on a level surface. Verify the weight distribution is balanced.
Padded cushion is dirty
Wipe clean with a damp cloth and mild detergent. For stubborn stains, consult a fabric cleaner suitable for upholstery.
