Deriving maximum
benefit from your
Altus conference
chair
To benefit from the Altus conference
chair’s ergonomic features, individual
adjustments need to be made.
Care of your
Altus conference
chair
Care of your Altus conference chair
is easy.
It requires no more care than any other
fine seating. Exclusive functional
mechanisms and component integrity
are thoroughly tested. A ten-year
warranty covers structural integrity,
while a one-year warranty covers
upholstery.
Periodic light cleaning is all that is
necessary. Be certain to vacuum
upholstery frequently and thoroughly.
Use mild soap or detergent with luke-
warm water and a soft, non-scratching
cloth to clean plastic surfaces,
upholstery, and powder-coated metal.
Stains and spots may require a more
thorough cleaning. For this we
recommend:
Fabric Upholstery - Use a
foam-type cleaner such as Johnson Wax
“Glory” or Earl Grissmer Co. “Blue
Lustre” for general cleaning.
For more stubborn spots and stains, use
Texie Chemical Co.’s “K2r”. Always fol-
low the manufacturer’s directions.
Plastic parts and powder-coated
finishes - Chewing gum and similar
stubborn spots may be removed with
cigarette lighter fluid. Wipe dry
immediately. Sunnyside Plastic Cleaner
is ideal for light cleaning. Buffing with this
product restores luster to smooth sur-
faces. Its anti-static properties help repel
dust and dirt. High quality wax, such as
Johnson’s “Glo-Coat” or “Simonize”,
restores luster and protects the finish.
Follow container directions and apply
with a soft cloth and buff thoroughly.
Caution: Do not use dry clean-
ing agents on upholstery, or a coarse
cloth when applying cleaning agents to
smooth surfaces.
Seat height - To lower height while
seated, lift the lever at the right of the
seat. To raise the height, remove your
weight from the seat while lifting the
lever.
Tilt lock - To lock the back in place,
push the lever in. To tilt the back, pull
the lever out.
Back tilt tension - To increase the tilt
tension, turn the knob (located directly
under the front of the seat) clockwise.
To decrease the tilt tension, turn the
knob counter-clockwise.
