Tools required: Rubber mallet (Standard hammer is not recommended)
Note: These instructions are intended for various models and congurations, with and without arms.
Your products may not look exactly as those shown in the diagrams.
Important: The assembly process requires all interlocking wedge hardware be kept loose until later
in the sequence. Once all parts are properly connected, it is then safe to tighten and secure hardware.
Follow these instructions closely to ensure your product remains strong and stable for many years of use.
Weight Capacity: All chairs in these series have a weight capacity of 275 lbs. per seat, unless
otherwise stated.
1. Unpack and identify all parts. Important: The white
label on the bottom of the seat goes in the back.
2. This chair is held together by use of interlocking
wedge hardware, as shown in gure 1.
3. Attach the seat cushion to one leg frame by aligning
the interlocking wedges and sliding them together
simultaneously, as shown in gure 2. Important:
Keep these wedge connections loose for now.
4. Repeat step 3 to attach the second leg frame to the
seat cushion. Keep these connections loose for now
as well.
5. Stand the chair upright and slide the back cushion
between the leg frames, as shown in gure 3. Use
care that the wedges on both sides are properly
aligned and connected simultaneously. Do not
attempt to insert one side ahead of the other. Keep
these wedge connections loose for now.
6. With the chair upright on a level surface, use your
hands to apply pressure to the seat and back
cushions a little at a time. You should feel the
wedges slide together and tighten.
7. With scrap cardboard or other protective material
over the fabric, use a rubber mallet (not a standard
hammer) to gently tap the seat and back cushions
until the interlocking wedges are “locked” together.
Important: Wedges are correctly “locked” when
the inner wedge comes into contact with the top
ap of the outer wedge, and the bottom edges
align, as shown in gure 4. Avoid excessive
force or damage to the wedges may occur.
8. Wedge connections must be visually inspected
before use to ensure all are correctly set and locked.
9. Your product is now assembled and ready to use.
