How do you get the back to lower? I have pulled it up and it clicks, but can't adjust back down.

On my chair, you have to pull the back of the chair all the way up, then you can push it all the way down, and then adjust to the desired height.

Both of the previous answers are good...try adjusting the "up force / opening force first as it is the easiest, fastest troubleshoot. Go to your manufacturer web site, type in your model number and look for additional troubleshooting information, including the original manual that will explain all troubleshooting procedures. After all adjustments you should re-check the "down force" for guaranteed safety.

once you have it set, pivot is tightened with a bolt (wrench provided), you make it as tight as you want. Sloppy to no movement. I have mine set to very hard to move so I can still adjust it some without loosening bolt. To raise or lower some (minor adjustment) there is a screw at top, and the left right slider bar is with a knob but still no movement if wanted

Raise it all the way up, and then it will release and allow you to lower it.. Hope this helps &#128522;

I had that same problem at first. It really needs to be sat on when you want it to go down. You literally will have to sit on it, then pull the lever to lower it where you want it. It's a pain.

There is a small black button on the top. Just press that and the top will slide up or down

You need to push the back rest forward and then back to a flat position first. Then while you are pulling back rest up from floor, it will click at various upright positions. Stop when you get the position you want. That should work .

You have to manually push it down. But I assume you have already tried that and it didn't work.

Turn the big knob on the underside of the chair. Also, the spring loosens up over time.

I'm able to hold mine back up. I just twist it a little and it pretty much goes back the way it was.

In addition to pulling the lever out, there's a knob under the chair which adjusts "tilt tension" which is pre-set to be very tight. Turn the knob counter-clockwise to loosen it - that should make it easier to tilt.

That is the tricky part. You are supposed to press the bottoms on the side for it to recline. There are 3 levels. The one that I bought the plastic button keeps getting stuck. I have to use a butter knife to recline it. If you want it in an upright position it slides well. I think mine could just be a defect or the plastic needs some exercise. I should have bought mine from a store for an easy return. I hate mail order returns. So I just deal with it.

Bring the foot rest all of the way up manually, it will click, then push it down all the way and ratchet it back up in increments. This is just like your lawn chair lounges, same concept. It doesn't lock, it goes up all the way, then down to the bottom and ratchets up to straight again, until it reaches the top then it automatically goes down for the slow return up. Hope that helped.

how did you get it to lean back? Mind is what you want it doesn't lean back no matter what I try

Pull up on the end of the middle bar. Adjust it out to the length you need and then snap the middle bar back down in place.

mine doesn't adjust, it is set to the tallest. When I try to lower it, nothing moves? Does anyone know why? Thank you
