Step-by-step assembly
Step 1
Screw 4 angle brackets (102646) onto the seat rails.
2 on the back frame, 2 on the front frame — 1 screw (109598) each, Phillips screwdriver.
Step 2
Push 2 barrel nuts (100505) into the back legs.
Into the holes on the inside of each leg.
Step 3 · manual step 2
Screw 2 bolts (100391) into them by hand.
Turn the barrel nut with a flat screwdriver so the bolt catches.
Step 4 · manual step 3
Slide the two side rails down onto the bolts.
The round holes face inwards.
Step 5 · manual step 4
Slide a washer (115983) under each bolt head and tighten.
Only until snug — the washer must not get squeezed out of shape.
Step 6 · manual step 5
Front frame: 2 barrel nuts (100505), then 2 bolts (100391).
Same as step 2 — screw the bolts in by hand.
Step 7 · manual step 6
Press the front frame down onto the side rails.
Step 8 · manual step 7
Turn the chair upside down onto a table.
The backrest hangs over the edge.
Step 9 · manual step 7
Washers (115983) under the front bolt heads, then tighten.
Again only until snug.
Step 10
Stand the chair on a flat floor.
Press down on the seat frame so all four legs touch the floor (manual p. 7).
Step 11 · manual step 8
Now tighten all 4 bolts firmly with the Allen key.
Step 12 · manual step 9
Place the seat on the frame.
Step 13 · manual step 10
Hold the seat and turn the chair upside down onto the table.
Step 14 · manual step 11
Fix the seat with 4 screws (100400) through the brackets.
Use the Phillips screwdriver.
Step 15
Turn the chair upright.
Your NÄSINGE chair is ready.
Tips & safety
- All four legs on the floor before the final tightening. Stand the chair on a flat floor and press the seat frame down, then tighten the 4 bolts (manual p. 7).
- Work on a rug or the flattened box. The manual shows this so the parts don’t get scratched. Unsure about a step? Contact IKEA.
