How does the seat release. I can't seem to open it. Also, is there no manual? I certainly didn't get one!

Seat is difficult to lift initially, just keep pulling firmly. We got a manual with ours. Try online and see if you can download one.

Grasp the seat by the rear and pull up sharply. There is a simple clip. Once I got Bella's seat open I had to loosen the four screws and adjust the clip properly. If it moves, then the seat is really hard to open. There was a very short manual. I have gotten most of my information on line. I also bought 45 degree valves to inflate the tires. None of my tire pumps would fit between the spokes and I ruined a tube on the rear wheel and it is a pain to replace. When it comes time to replace a tube you can buy them with a 45 degree valve. Otherwise it has been a great scooter and gets ridden miles each day.

It is a little tricky but mine opens and closes. After inspecting it I see that as you may suspect, turning the handle right tightens it and left loosens it. Yours must be initially stuck. I bet if you can get it to open once you won't have any trouble the next time. ;)

It took me awhile to figure it out. But you'll see when you push it in where it catches. To unlock it, you have to pull it out easy. Or instead of pushing it in, pull the opposite direction, but easy. I used to pull the whole leg of the chair out when pulling to hard. So pull easy and the legs should be able to fold easy.

There is latches in the back of the seat. You have to push them in at the same time to release the top from the bottom piece.

I just read Kyle's answer and was gratified he had answered it completely. I will say one thing, I was rather upset that I didn't get the seat, but somehow managed to get the seat off the old unit. I am still using the old seat. I thought the price of the seat was rather expensive. I was grateful that Amazon had it if I had broken the old one. Further, try to protect the unit if you are having construction done in your facility or home. Doesn't take much to break them.

Just by pushing or pulling them from the top...they are hard to adjust and it feels like your going to damage the seat. Grab the sides of them and they should move. There's no lever, it's all internal.

You what?? I don't know! :( it seems so long ago that I used it. Ummm... There is no knob but adjusting the straps was very easy. I do remember that. Sorry I'm not more helpful. Also this is a "no frills" seat. In hindsight I would've tried to find something alittle more cozy. :)

Thank you very much for the information. I have the bike, but the seat is so uncomfortable that I rarely use it. I have been unable to find any contact information for the maker to get information on a proper seat for this bike.

There's a small spring-loaded metal ring underneath the seat that unlocks the stool and allows it to open. Very easy to operate once you find it.

There is a lever below the seat on the left hand side near the back. Push the lever forward to release the seat and then when the seat is where you want it, push the lever to the back to secure the seat.

I agree it's a little tricky. Try pulling up from the lowest part of the seat...just a little bit, and then you can push down from the top part of the seat. Another way is to grab the center of the middle bar in the back, (just below the seat) and at the same time pull up from the bottom of the seat.I also bought another one which is much easier to use.

The screws on the side of the seat must be screwed in tighter...there's a screw on the left and the right, use the wrench that you received in the package.

This was a gift to my grandson for his new baby, also a gift to my niece. They both love it and the seat only adjust in two position. I'm not sure how that was done because it's been a while. I'll try to find out and let you know.

Hello, I had the hardest time figuring out how to close it myself. You need to stand behind the chair with one hand on the handle. Pull down the black cord underneath the chair and at the same time push the handle forward and the chair will fold up. I hope my instructions help you.

There should be lever/bolt tightener assembly directly under the seat. Pull the lever out, rotate the lever and attached bolt counter clockwise, adjust seat up or down to your requirements, then reverse the procedure to tighten it up. It shouldn't require any tools. Very similar to the front axle (quick removal theoretically) assembly.

I don't have a problem with it but I do remember having to tighten it pretty tight. That said, it is not a comfy seat to begin with. I would recommend going to a bike and get a good one. That's what I am doing.
