When adjusting a manual chair, undo the 
screws which hold the legrest release 
lever in place on the right side of the chair. 
Use a cross-head screwdriver to undo the 
screws and carefully pull the lever out of its 
aperture. Do not disconnect the cable.

The front inner top edge of the side panels 
have a small cover panel which clips over a 
wire on each side of the seat board. Un-clip 
the J-strip from this wire to reveal the nuts 
which hold the side panels in place.

Undo each of these nuts using a socket 
wrench with a 13mm socket. There are five 
nuts each side and the two rear nuts can 
be obscured by the sides of the back frame 
depending on the seat depth adjustment of 
the chair. 

Adjust the seat depth so that all five nuts 
from each side can be accessed and 
removed. Keep the nuts in a safe place for 
future re-fitting.

The side panels are now only held in place 
by the arm fitment trim plates and care 
needs to be taken not to attempt to move 
the chair by pulling the side panels. Handle 
the side panels very gently to avoid damage 
to the covers.

Carefully angle the side panel out to give 
access to the height adjustment points on 
the frame.

Locate the 4 nuts in front of the chair back.

Undo the top and bottom screws holding the 
legrest release lever.
