Does anyone know how to tilt the seat forward?

There are three levers. The first, closest to your knees raises the seat up or down. The middle tilts the seat forward or back. The rear lever tilts the back forward or back. Each lever has a drawing demonstrating what it does.

The 2nd (middle) lever below the seat allows you to adjust the seat tilt as needed.

Obviously pulling the handle up with raise & lower. To operate the tilt, pull the handle straight out horizontally. This will allow you to rock it. Bring the seat back to an upright position, push the handle back in horizontally and it will lock. Hopefully this helps you!

I came looking for help for the same issue. Is the seat supposed to be able to tilt forward but not side to side? It makes sense that way, but I have to ask, lol. It makes sense to be able to tilt the sit to adjust to the way you're riding. For example, if you lean forward in a racing position, you may want to be able to tilt the seat down a little bit...

The same lever in back that raises and lowers the chair...pulls out to the side to release the tilt. You may need to sit in the chair and lean a little forward or back to get the lever to release.

I bought this chair for my husband and he loves it! It is a very comfortable chair. It has a lock mechanism if you want to lock in a certain position when tilting it backwards. Or you can leave it "unlocked" which makes it have like a spring rocking motion while sitting in it. As for tilting forward, not really sure what you are asking. If you want to tilt backwards, like I say it has a button to "lock" in place and you can also 'unlock" it to sit more forward. It does have about 4 or 5 adjustments for the lumbar support. My husband thinks it is a great chair for the price. I hope we have helped answer your questions.

You have to tighten the nut very, VERY tightly, and the act of doing so has a tendency to tilt the seat forward a bit, so start with it tilted slightly back. It's not a really comfortable seat-I'm thinking about replacing it with something different.

Just pull it forward (neither upward or downward). Takes a bit of back and forth. Maybe place a flat screwdriver and wedge it forward gently.

Hi Fred, there are two locking devices located directly under the armrests (the black plastic loops). Adjust those either both forward or both backward (opposite of the position they are currently in), work with it... this adjustment may stabilize the chair. I hope this helps.

Loosen the nut and screw where the seat post and the frame meet...you can move it up and down...and then retighten.

Mine doesn't tilt back easily either. It's very stiff. It isn't made very well.

there is red lever under tray, push it down but make. sure the slide on the leg is not locked , push back of top of seat backwards. it's a little tricky but it just takes a knack.

I think the manual wins on a very dubious technicality: it tilts about 2 degrees forward or backward, the snaps back to where it was. If there's any way to lock in this tiny angle of tilt, I haven't found it. The height adjustment (doesn't) work in precisely the same way.

No, ours doesn't tilt forward, but, it was difficult to put together and no one should jump on it!

On the right side, underneath the seat is a lever. This lever controls the height of the chair and also locks out the tilt feature if it is pushed inward toward the user. Pull it out (ie away from you) and this should fix the problem. If it does not, then there is something mechanically wrong with your product

I know the seat can be raised or lowered but I don't know about tilting it. Probably the best thing would be to get blocks to put on the pedals. I have the same feeling - it helps if you have that rubbery seat for comfort. I think it sort of holds you in place.

The knob in front under chair adjusts the tension of the lean. the lever on the side that adjusts height also allows for tilt if you pull it out to the right. it leans pretty far, but u may have to loosen the knob to get the tension where u need it for easy recline..

Yes, it has forward and back tilt controls. You can use them to put the chair forward so that it doesn't go back, or back so it doesn't go forward. Or you can have them off, allowing tilt whenever you lean back. Then you'd use the tension control knob on the right side to your liking. I change the settings all the time depending on what I'm doing.
