PREPARING

SEAT & SEATARM

Height Adjustment

The height of the seat arm can be adjusted

tool free. Pull the black knob on the seat arm

tube and adjust the height. Push back the

black button to fix the position.

If you want to be very low, you can remove the seat arm tube by unlocking it with the blue lever

and removing the tube.

Now plug back the seat arm (without the

outer tube). Even now you can still readjust

the height of the arm.

Don‘t use the seat arm without the blocker

(with the black knob & blue lever). Otherwise

you would damage the dolly wheels.
