With the 5 Star Base upside-down, push the Casters (x5) into each hole with a fair amount
of force (they should ‘pop’ in). Once completed, turn over so the casters are on the floor and
insert the Cylinder into the 5 Star Base with the larger end on the bottom.
Set the assembled base aside for now - we’ll get back to it later!

First, thread each of the Back Bolts (x3) with a Spring Washer (x3) and then a Flat Washer
(x3). With the Backrest and Mechanism upside down, slide the seat back into the slot of the
Mechanism. Then, using the Allen Key, screw in the middle bolt loosely first to hold the two
pieces together, secure the left and right bolts, then return to and tighten the middle bolt.
Use your chair box as a table to help! Place the Mechanism on top of the box while letting
the Backrest hang over the side to make it easier to attach both pieces.

With the Cushion upside down, insert Armrests (x2) into the sides of the chair, making sure
the armrest Adjustment Buttons face the front of the seat (the same direction as the Lock
Levers shown above). Next, thread each of the Armrest Bolts (x2) and Flat Washers (x2)
into the Pre-inserted Hex Nuts in the Armrests, and tighten.

Grab the seat you assembled in Step 4. On the right side of the Cushion, hold the Seat Depth
Adjustment Pull open while sliding the seat onto the chair frame. Ensure the track on the
bottom of the seat engages on both sides of the Mechanism. Push the seat all the way back
to the base until you hear a click, and release the Pull to secure.
Caution: The seat is only secure once a click is heard when fastening it to the frame.

To install: Attach Headrest to the top rear of the chair back frame. Align the holes on the
headrest base to the chair frame, insert both Screws, and tighen with the Allen Key.

All done!
Go ahead, try it out. You may experience what we call an “ahhh” sensation. That’s completely
normal. You’re now well equipped for whatever the workday throws at you.
Now, don’t be shy. Show us how it looks!

FAQ & Troubleshooting
Issue
The armrest bolts don’t
seem fully tightened.
I can’t get the seat onto
the chair frame.
My chair won’t tilt.
My chair is stuck in the
reclined position.
The armrests on my chair
are wobbling or not stable.
My lumbar support feels
uncomfortable.
Suggestion
The bolts attaching the armrests to the chair should permit
them to slide. Use the locking levers to tighten.
Pull out the square lever on the side of the seat before
attempting to slide onto the frame.
Make sure to unlock the tilt by twisting the left lever on
your chair up.
If you chair is stuck mid-tilt, recline all the way back until
you hear a click. That will reset the tilt lock and your chair
back should rise to upright.
After you set your preferred armrest width, make sure to
lock the armrests using the two levers above the height
and tilt adjustment levers. When locked, these levers
should be parallel to the seat.
Use the two handles on both sides of the lumbar support
to adjust it up or down. The lumbar rest is designed to
support an upright posture, but if it stays uncomfortable,
you can remove it by rotating the pad 90 degrees (without
rotating the support arm) and applying firm pressure until
it pops o. Contact us if you want a consultation.
