Instruction ManualThis document.

Safety Information

Please read all instructions before assembly. Keep children and pets away during the process.

  1. Lifting: The chair frame is heavy. Lift with care, using your legs, to avoid back injury.
  2. Work Area: Perform assembly on a clean, soft surface (e.g., carpet) to prevent scratching the frame or cover.
  3. Inspection: Inspect all parts for damage before starting. Do not use damaged components.

WARNING! Ensure the chair frame is stable and not leaning against walls or furniture during cover installation to prevent tipping.

Removing the Old Cover

If replacing an existing cover, follow these steps to remove it safely.

  1. Turn the chair upside down on a protected surface.
  2. Locate the fastening straps or hooks underneath the seat cushion and backrest.
  3. Unhook or unbuckle all straps. The cover is tension-fit; it may require gentle pulling to release.
  4. Starting from the bottom, carefully pull the old cover off the foam cushion and frame.
  5. Inspect the foam cushion and frame for any wear or damage before installing the new cover.

Tip: Take a photo of how the old cover is attached before removal for reference.

Installing the New Cover

Ensure the new cover is oriented correctly (front/back, top/bottom). The fabric should feel smooth on the sitting surface.

  1. Place the new cover over the foam cushion, aligning the seams with the edges of the chair.
  2. For the seat: Pull the cover down evenly on all sides. Ensure it is centered.
  3. For the backrest: Slide the cover over the top and pull down evenly.
  4. Work from the center outwards to smooth out wrinkles and ensure a tight fit.

CAUTION! Do not use excessive force. The fabric is strong but can be torn if pulled too aggressively over sharp edges.

Adjusting & Securing

Final steps to secure the cover for daily use.

  1. Fasten Straps: Locate the straps underneath the chair. Connect the hooks or buckles securely.
  2. Check Fit: Sit in the chair gently. The cover should not shift or bunch up. Readjust straps if necessary.
  3. Smooth Surface: Run your hands over the seat and backrest to eliminate any remaining wrinkles or folds.

Note: The cover may feel slightly tight initially but will adapt to the cushion shape with use.

Care & Cleaning

Proper care will extend the life of your chair cover.

WARNING! Do not use harsh chemicals, solvents, or abrasive cleaners as they may damage the fabric.
