Office Chair Installation Methods / Steps

Step 1   Check the parts and components.

Check whether the parts are enough carefully before installation, or else it’s easy to make mistakes!

Generally speaking, a swivel chair includes: 1 backrest + 1 chair seat + 1 five-star base + 5 casters + 1 gas cylinder + 1 tilt mechanism + 1 pair of armrests + several screws + 1 headrest!

*Note: some are integrated with the backrest and the seat. And there are different screws, some are Torx screws while some are other screws.
