Seat Height
Lever on right side
To raise: While raising your weight off chair,
lift lever.
To lower: While seated, lift lever.
Adjust chair height so feet rest flat on floor
or footrest.Avoid dangling legs, which puts
pressure on the back of thighs and restricts
blood flow.Awork surface or keyboard that
seems too high or low may require adjusting.
Tilt Tension
Knob under seat at front of chair
To increase tension: While seated, turn knob
to the left.
To decrease tension: While seated, turn knob
to the right.
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.

Tilt Lock
Knob on front left side
To lock chair in upright, semireclined,
or fully reclined position: Sit upright or lean
back to desired position. Pull knob until you
hear a click.
To release lock: Push knob all the way back
in. To disengage upright position, lean forward.

Tilt lock allows you to lock chair in a fixed
position for the extra stability that some tasks
may require.

To resume upright position: While leaning
forward, pull knob all the way out. Return to
