Slide the 5 legs into the centre hub.
Work on a rug to avoid scratches. The hub lies upside down.

Tighten with the Allen key — 10 of each in total.
Step 3
Press the 5 castors (10049027) into the ends of the legs.
Step 4 · manual step 3
Turn the base over onto its castors.
Step 5 · manual step 4
Pull the protective cap off the top of the gas cylinder.
The cap is not needed — put it in the recycling.
Step 6 · manual step 5
Put the gas cylinder into the hole in the centre of the base.
Step 7 · manual step 6
Lay the seat upside down and place the plate on it.
The round socket points up, away from the seat.
Step 8 · manual step 6
Fix the plate with 4 bolts (149696) and the Allen key.
Step 9 · manual step 7
Turn the seat over and put it onto the gas cylinder.
The top of the cylinder goes into the socket under the seat.
Step 10 · manual step 7
To adjust the seat height, lift the lever under the seat.
See the information box at manual step 7.
Tips & safety
- Safety castors The castors brake automatically when nobody is sitting on the chair — so it won’t roll away when you stand up (manual p. 10).
- Leave the gas cylinder to the experts Only trained personnel may replace or repair the seat-height adjustment parts (manual p. 5).
