You can reduce your risk of musculoskeletal pain and injury
by adjusting your chair so your body is properly supported.
A correctly set up chair will reduce the strain on your back,
neck and hips. Hood’s ergonomic performance chairs
are designed to be easily adjusted so you can change
the seat height; adjustable lumbar position; armrest height,
width, depth, and angle and back tilt resistance.
Adjust lumbar position so that it comfortably
1
supports the natural curve of your spine. Sit back
in your chair ensuring good back support. Set the
tilt tension to create neutral resistance when
leaning back. Leave back unlocked for ‘free float’
mode to encourage dynamic body movement.
For maximum comfort, your arms should make
2
contact with the armpad without any lift at your
shoulders.
Set seat height with your back firmly against the
3
chair back. Adjust the seat gas lift to the proper
height so that your feet are flat on the ground
with your knees close to a 90 degree angle.
