Step-by-step assembly

Step 1
Press the plastic cover down onto the centre of the base.
Work on a rug or the box. Push the cover all the way down over the hub.

Step 2
Lay the seat upside down and push the column into the plate.
The narrow end of the column goes into the hole in the middle.

Step 3
Turn the seat over and hold it above the base.
Line the column up with the hole in the centre of the hub.

Step 4 · manual step 3
Lower the column into the base.
Push it straight down into the hole in the centre of the hub.

Step 5 · manual step 4
Lift the backrest up until the hinges click into place.
Check that both sides have locked (see the manual, step 4).

Step 6 · manual step 4
Listen for the click on each side.
The hinge locks the backrest upright.

Push the backrest down as far as it goes.
It slides down the frame until it meets the seat.

Fasten the hook-and-loop at the lower back corner.
Press the grey strips together, then fold the flap around the frame tube.

Step 9 · manual step 6
Do the same at the other corner.
The manual shows this 2× — once on each side.

Lay it upside down on the rug.
