The cylinder that pumps the chair up will not keep it up. the seat keeps dropping down to its lowest point. Is there an adjustment on the air cylinder

As far as I know, there is no adjustment to the pneumatics. The chair I ,bought is long since relegated to the trash pile for a variety of reasons, including bad pneumatics, the plastic joining to the chair crushing under my mmassive 240 lbs, so I really can't help, other to seek something other than Lane.

Hi I put them together using the instructions didn't have a problem but after while I had to take it apart and re adjust it. It took a couple of times before I got it right. Take it down and try again make sure when u put the chair on the bar it's lined up properly and if u turn the Chair base over there are bolts try to adjust them. Also when u put the chair on the stand u have to pump it all the way up and then down.

I had the same problem at first and it was the little black cap on the hydraulic cylinder under the release lever attached to the chair!!!!

The lever towards the front of the chair on the right should do it. If you are at the bottom, remove your weight from the seat and press lever back to go up. If you are at the top, sit on the chair and press lever back to go down. Otherwise the gas lift may be broken or you are at the top and do not weigh enough for the chair to go down.

Have you tightened the top tether as much as it will go. That's the only thing that will lift the seat off the ground. However, I believe my seat still touched the ground unless the suitcase was angled as it was being wheeled behind me.

You have to work it slowly like I'm sure youve already tried. I Even slightly bent in a small bit of the side to get it to at least start. Then wiggle it around in a circle til it finally seats. Its a pain in the Butt. Sorry no great secret way.

pretty sure the chair goes up and down, but when i built mine (the wheels were almost impossible to get in) the height even at the lowest didn't allow for the chair to roll under the desk. well built comphie chair in all other regards.

I actually bought this for my mother, and I remember we had a tough time getting it to raise all the way when we first tried it. It's been too long and I can't remember exactly what we did to get it to release... but you might try pushing down on it and then release it to see if that helps ... I just searched Google and found this page, and yes now I remember we had to reset the weight setting ... it says to Push down on the upholstered part of the cushion, causing it to &#64258;ex outward. This allows the lifting mechanism to swing freely. (The Uplift cushion is designed to &#64258;ex this way thousands of times. Flexing will not damage the product.) Look at this link http://www.medicalsuppliescanada.ca/documents/seat-assist-user-guide-english.pdf Good luck and God bless!!

I have had this happen a couple of times, thinking it was broken. However, there are two things you can do. First, just twist the chair's frame a little to loosen things up. Also, for a long term solution, spray some WD-40 on and down the tubes that normally slide the seat up and down. The tubes just got a little twisted and have a lot of friction inside the other tubes - add lubrication. Good Luck!

HI Kelly.Contact the seller. Let them know you did not receive the pump with your chair. It could be hard on you to try to fill it correctly with out the pump. You paid for the chair pump and all. They are a great crew and l know theywill respond quickly. I know it is frustrating for you not to be able to use the chair but this is one company that will do right by you. So don't wait. Merry Christmas!

No. I recommend the High Output Air Pump Double Quick III. I bought one and I like it, however, the chair popped before I could use it much. Probably my fault though. I didn't treat it lightly.

I had the same problem. The front keeps dropping. I looked at the instructions and they show a support which goes into two little tubes. However, I never received this piece. I contacted the seller who told me that it would be sent, but it never arrived. I don't use this seat anymore because of this.

The pneumatic tube could be blown, but highly unlikely. Try rising yourself so the chair will rise to meet you. It will not rise you off the bottom by itself. Other than that, I have no suggestion.

Hi Rosemary, does the lift not work on both chairs? You have to actually sit on the chair and then press the lift to go up or down. Let me know if this works.

I have two of these seats, and they work fine. There's some kind of hydraulic mechanism that allows the seat and lid to slowly drop, instead of slamming down. Maybe the hydraulic mechanism was set too strong in yours, that's causing the problem. I don't know if it's adjustable. You may want to contact the manufacturer about it.

Did you take the black thing off the base? We didn't take that off before putting the top on and the chair would not raise or lower. We had to use plyers to get the black thing on the top of the base off, but once it was off and the top was on the chair does raise and lower. Good luck!

You just really have to tighten it the best you can. I initially thought the same thing but I was able to tighten the seat and it does not move. The smallest crank makes a big difference. Good Luck!
