Step 1: Connect Backrest (A) to Seat Cushion (B)

Check that backrest and seat are properly aligned before moving to next step.
Step 2: Attach Left Side Frame (C – Left)

- Insert wooden dowels (I) into the pre-drilled upper holes of the front support rail (J).
- Position the left side frame (C – Left) against the seat structure.
- Align bolt holes carefully as shown in the picture.

- Align all connection points with the seat and front support rail (J).

FAQs
1. What happens if I skip the 70% tightening rule and go straight to 100%?
Tightening bolts to 100% too early locks the frame into a fixed position before all parts are properly aligned. This can cause the frame to sit at a slight angle or create stress points on the wood that weaken the structure over time.
2. What should I do if I lose the Allen Key?
A standard M4 Allen Key (hex key) can be purchased as a replacement from any hardware store. Ensure it fits snugly before use to avoid stripping the bolt heads.
3. Is this chair suitable for outdoor use?
No. This chair is designed for indoor use on level flooring only. Exposure to rain, humidity, or direct sunlight can damage the wooden frame and cushion fabric over time.
