Safety Instructions

Read all instructions before assembly. Ensure a clean, flat workspace.

  1. Keep small parts away from children during assembly to avoid choking hazards.
  2. Assemble on a soft surface (e.g., carpet) to prevent scratching the frame or floor.
  3. Do not exceed the maximum load capacity of 250 lbs (113 kg).
  4. Check all connections are tight before first use and periodically thereafter.

WARNING! Chair is heavy; lift with care to avoid back injury. Do not stand on the chair.

Assembly Steps

Estimated assembly time: 10-15 minutes. Follow steps in order.

  1. Attach the legs: Place the steel frame upside down on a protected surface.
  2. Insert plastic glides: Press a glide onto the bottom of each leg tube until it clicks into place.
  3. Attach the seat unit: Align the plywood seat/backrest with the pre-drilled holes on the frame.
  4. Secure with screws: Using the provided Allen key, tighten the four screws firmly but do not overtighten.
  5. Flip the chair upright and check stability. Ensure all glides are touching the floor evenly.

CAUTION! Overtightening screws may damage the plywood or strip the threads.

Care & Maintenance

Clean regularly to maintain appearance and longevity.

Steel Frame: Wipe with a soft, damp cloth. Dry immediately. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.

Plywood Seat/Back: Wipe with a slightly damp cloth. For stubborn stains, use a mild soap solution. Never soak or use excessive water.

Plastic Glides: Check periodically for wear. Replace if cracked or missing to protect floors.

CAUTION! Do not expose to direct sunlight or extreme humidity for prolonged periods.

Usage Guidelines

Designed for indoor residential or commercial use.

  1. Use on flat, stable surfaces only.
  2. Do not drag the chair; lift to move to prevent damage to glides and floors.
  3. The chair is not suitable for outdoor use.
  4. Avoid placing near direct heat sources (radiators, fireplaces).

Tip: For even wear, occasionally rotate chair position if used in a fixed setting.

Stacking Instructions

Chairs can be stacked for efficient storage.

  1. Ensure chairs are clean and dry before stacking.
  2. Lift the chair and align the backrest of the top chair with the seat front of the chair below.
  3. Gently lower until the chairs lock into the stacking position.
  4. Do not stack more than 6 chairs high. The stack must be against a wall for stability.
  5. To unstack, lift the top chair straight up and away.

WARNING! Never stack chairs on an uneven surface. Keep stacked chairs away from walkways.
