Chair height sinks during use

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Assembly is straightforward and requires standard tools typically provided in the packaging. Ensure all bolts are tightened to the factory-recommended torque during setup to maintain the 24-hour usage rating. The chair is compatible with standard office floor surfaces, though floor mats are recommended for high-pile carpets to protect the castor mechanisms. For maintenance, clean the durable upholstery with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. Regularly inspect the `asynchro` adjustment levers to ensure they move freely and lubricate the castor stems annually if you notice any resistance during movement.
