SEATING SAFETY TIPS

Thank you for your purchase. LF Gaming chairs are designed
to support your body for optimal posture and comfort. When sat
in improperly, any chair will place strain on the legs and spine,
which can cause pain. Ergonomic Chairs work optimally when
they have been adjusted and are used properly. Improper use
of even the best chairs mitigates their effectiveness and may
even result in injury. Familiarize yourself with the functions of
the chair and follow the tips below to ensure years of risk-free
seated comfort.

• Always sit fully in the chair, with your back against the

backrest.

• Never perch on the edge of the seat, sit cross-legged or sit

with your legs up on a desk or other tall surface. Leaning too
far in any direction, so that a shift in your body weight causes
the chair’s casters to leave the floor, increases the risk of
the chair tipping over. Ensure all casters remain completely
on the floor at all times. Not doing so may cause harm to
yourself, surrounding property and others, and may void
your warranty.

• Never stand on your chair or sit on the arms of your chair.

Do not use the arms to lift yourself out of the chair.

• Exercise caution when moving your chair between different

floor surfaces. Push the chair while you are standing, rather
than attempting to do so while seated.

• Use the chair’s tension control mechanism to compensate for

different body weights. Always ensure the control is properly
adjusted, resulting in a smooth and controlled tilt motion.

• Your chair should be checked every 6-12 months to ensure

all the parts are tight and in optimal condition.

which reduces pressure on disks between the vertebrae.
Enables optimization of shape of backrest to fit curvature of
the spine around lower back.

• Nylon Resin Back Frame - Provides strength and stability.

• Lateral Shaped Back with LIFE-Foam™ Memory Foam

- Supports/cups backrest while memory foam reduces
pressure points and aids circulation.

forearms comfortably while typing.

• Height and Width Adjustable Arm Brackets - Provides

support when not using keyboard to minimize tension build
up in the shoulders. Optimizes the lateral proximity of the

weight over a larger area, pressure points are reduced in
troublesome places like the back of the thighs and tailbone.

NORMAL CARE INSTRUCTIONS

One of the best ways to keep UltraFabrics

brand surfaces

looking great is to properly maintain them by cleaning regularly to

prevent excessive dirt from accumulating.
Below is a general outline to help you keep your quality

UltraFabrics

brand products looking their best. Following these

guidelines will help to extend the life of the fabric.
1.

Vacuum dust and clean regularly with soap and water

Wipe up spills as soon as they occur

Lift most stains with an alcohol based cleaner like Fantastik

Disinfect using a 5:1 water/bleach solution

All cleaning solution residue should be thoroughly rinsed

with water

Air Dry

BALLPOINT PEN REMOVAL INSTRUCTIONS

Wipe the stain off with ethanol (rubbing alcohol). [If this is

unsuccessful, proceed to step 2].

Prepare a solution of 50% chlorinated bleach, 50% water.

Place a thin tissue over the ink stain.

Apply the chlorinated bleach solution. Be sure not to over

saturate the tissue.

Cover tissue with polyethylene film (plastic wrap) to prevent

chlorinated bleach solution from drying.

Check on stain repeatedly.

Do not leave the chlorinated bleach solution for more than

one (1) hour.

When the stain looks almost gone, remove the tissue and

rinse the stain with water.

To neutralize the bleached area, place a tissue on the

bleached area and apply 15% hydrogen peroxide solution.

10.  Leave on for thirty (30) minutes, and remove the tissue.
11.  Remove the peroxide residue with water.
12.   While the foregoing instructions have proven to work in

many cases, especially in which ink stains are addressed

immediately, not all ink stains can be removed in every

situation.

NOTE

These are recommended or suggested methods of cleaning.

Always try any cleaning method in a hidden area to convince

yourself of the results. LF Gaming is not responsible for damage

incurred while cleaning. Like any upholstery material, all fabrics

can fade to some degree if exposed to the sun or direct light.

Protect your furniture from sun and direct light.

MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

Casters, bases and arms can be wiped clean with a damp
cloth. For extra shine, they may be polished with products
specifically formulated for metal, plastics, nylon and fiberglass.
It should be understood that all products with moving parts will
make noise from time to time.

Please note that squeaks and creaks are typical of chairs that
have not been adjusted or serviced for a long time. To help
alleviate the frequency of noises please go through the steps
outlined below:

• The easiest way to alleviate noise is to systematically move

through each moving part and repeatedly adjust it. For
example, unlock the tilt lock paddle and rock in the chair for
several minutes – this will help move the lubrication along the
spring and stop loud squeaks.

• It may be that the plastic finger guard (if applicable) on

your control has shifted and is now rubbing against the
mechanism paddles. Remove the guard and reattach it to
stop the clicking.

• Check and if need be, tighten bolts attaching the seat and

back to the mechanism.

• Gas lifts will squeak if left idle for extended periods of time.

Lifting and lowering your chair, and rotating in your chair a
few times will eliminate these squeaks.

• Check casters and remove any carpet lint, dust or grime.

Check the bottom of the casters for flat spots. This can
occur on chairs that are rarely moved. Replace casters if
necessary.

• Tighten hand wheels attaching arms to mechanism.

TROUBLE SHOOTING AND TIPS

RATCHET BACK HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT

If you are experiencing difficulty in adjusting your Ratchet
Back, ensure you are following all of the steps carefully. Often
times with the larger models it can take a little more effort to
ensure the internal mechanism is resetting.

First, to reset the cycle FIRMLY lift the backrest until the
maximum height is reached. The internal mechanism will reset
and the back will drop down. FIRMLY press the backrest
downwards until you hear a click and the cycle will start over.
Lift the backrest upwards to reach desired height.

If you don’t hear a click when the backrest is pressed
downward at the bottom of the cycle – ensure the seat is not
impeding the backrest – (using the Seat Slider) you may need
to pull the seat forward away from the back until the backrest
is set to the desired location. Return the seat to the desired
location.
