Seat Height
Paddle-shaped lever on right side
To raise: While taking your weight off chair,
lift lever up.
To lower: While seated, lift lever up.
Adjust chair height so your feet rest flat on the
floor or footrest, with your body comfortably
supported by breathable Pellicle®suspension.
Avoid dangling legs, which puts pressure on
the back of thighs and restricts blood flow. A
work surface or keyboard that seems too high
or low may require adjusting.

Tilt Tension
Long stem on right side with knob
To increase tension: While seated, turn knob
forward (clockwise, toward + sign).
To decrease tension: While seated, turn knob
backward (counterclockwise, toward – sign).
Depending on the desired tilt resistance, a
number of turns may be required.
Increased tilt tension provides more stability
and back support while you recline. Too much
resistance may make it difficult to recline.
Depending on weight and preference,
different people will require different levels
of tilt resistance.

Arm Height
Lever on base of arm support
To raise or lower arm: While seated, lift lever
to unlock. Grasp base of arm support and raise
or lower to desired height. Lower lever to lock.
Adjust height of each chair arm so your
arms are supported. This helps take weight
off your shoulders.
Arm Angle
Front of each armpad
To swing arms in or out: While seated,
grasp front end of armpad and pivot it to the
left or right.
Adjusting arm angle can help support
different types of work and shifts in posture.
Swing chair arms inward for support while
using keyboard. Swing arm out to support
use of computer mouse.

PostureFit
®
Adjustment
Knob on right side of chair
To engage: While seated, turn knob forward
(clockwise) until it stops. Then turn knob
backward (counterclockwise) until you find
the support that feels right for you.
To disengage: While seated, turn knob
backward (counterclockwise).
Note: Set PostureFit with tilt limiter engaged in
forward position to achieve the best fit for you.
Before making this adjustment you should
be seated with your back in the pocket of the
chair back. Then adjust PostureFit so that it
comfortably supports the natural alignment
of your spine and provides lower back comfort.
