  • Use the handle on the Allen key. Slide the Allen key (100092) into the handle (121030) for a better grip — manual, page 2.
  • Work on a soft surface. The manual shows the seat on a rug, and on a table to fit the legs.
  • Missing a part or unsure? The manual says: contact your IKEA store for help.
