Why is it so hard to tilt it down?

I think it's a screwed up design, I have to get a screwdriver and flip the lever underneath to let the handle down and hope you don't push it all the way back up or you will have to do it again.My vacuum guy is looking at mine to see if anything can be done to fix it.

I don't know. It's to heavy to tilt safely with one person so I can look at the bottom of the legs to see. With a little machine work you may be able to do it.

It should be not too bad to get over. Just put it in the high setting and tilt it back. If all fails you could just make a ramp with some boards.

I had the same thing happen....when u slide it on,u have to tilt it forward some. It's an awkward fit but it will go all the way down.

You have to loosen the big round thing under the seat which controls the extent of the tilt. Then lift the lever, lean back, and you can feel the seat tilt up. Then press the lever to lock the tilt.

I'm not sure how far you need it to tilt down, but I can tell you that it can be moved up or down on the velcro strap that goes around the head rest. Hope this information helps. Good luck!

It tilts down. Has a locking lever so you can clamp it at whichever angle works best for you.Please note that this is a very solid, heavy mounting bracket. We are very pleased and this seems to be as good as you can get for less than $400

It tilts down, but I never tried tilting it up. Normally they are mounted upwards so you can tilt down and watch from the couch.

It has the ability to tilt up, but it is somewhat unstable when you do this. It's better just to let it hang down.

If you are sitting in the chair, reach down to the right and pull the locking tilt control arm straight out to your right then lean back. It's either straight up and down or all the way back. There does not seem to be any setting in between.

I have the same issue, it takes a little bit of finessing and turning to get it to sit level. It works really well.

The lever on the left allows you to "rock" back when it's up and doesn't not rock when it's down. That's the only tilt I'm aware of

Tilt one end down a little. Adjust it to al little longer than needed and push it up to where you want it. You might have to pound it up with your hand to the spot needed.

I've never experienced this. I just tried to tilt it, but couldn't. We've taken it on pretty steep hills, too.

It cannot be pointed at a significantly downward angle. It does tilt *slightly* down, perhaps ten degrees at an estimate, but it's a very subtle tilt. It can tilt at an upward angle far more significantly.

The tilt mechanism can sometimes be stuck, if you examine the bar that goes into the "pneumatic pump area", you'll see it crosses over to the left side to lock the seat... If it isn't engaging, try some WD-40 or tilt chair forward and try in a slightly forward tilt position, and it should engage

Keep cranking it! Once it reaches the top it will then tilt on it's own if you keep cranking it past the top limit.
