1. Start
- remove any felt or Nylon sliders
from the bottom of wooden leg chairs (not
applicable to front leg of metal chairs).
Bend the existing bends to align the frame
as shown, so that the arms about 10mm
inside the legs with the wheels parallel to
the front-back line of the chair.

Drill 4mm hole,
25mm deep, 35mm
above floor on
inside of leg (wood
only)
Drill 1/4 inch hole
27mm above floor
2. Front legs wood
- drill a horizontal 4mm
diameter hole 25mm deep on the inside of
each front leg, 35mm (for armchairs see
below
*
) from the floor.
Front legs metal –
drill the front legs 1/4
inch hole straight through, using the same
height (35mm -
do not forget to allow for
the plastic plugs & rubber ferrules
) above
the floor as for the wooden chairs.
*NB – for armchairs check the pedal height
is suitable before drilling! See Hints and
Tips page 3.
Rear legs wood & metal -
drill rear legs
straight through with a ¼ inch hole 27mm
above the floor. All holes should be exactly
horizontal and left and right holes should
be
exactly
in line with each other. NB. If
the rear legs are skewed or round that is
no problem –
see Hints & tips page 3.

3. Rear wheels
- install rear wheels as
shown. Place the bolt through the hole
from the outside, add the nut and tighten
very firmly. Slip on the wheel, axle tube &
washers plus the lock nut. Tighten the lock
nut firmly but do not to deform the axle
tube). Cut bolts, if too long, and remove
sharp edges. Check that the chair is
“foursquare” on a flat surface. If it is not
quite foursquare then adjust the depth of
the holes for the front leg washers to
compensate
(or put a washer in the
ferrules, if metal legs) – see part
