Setup, Compatibility & Care
Assembly is straightforward and requires minimal tools, primarily involving the attachment of the four castor wheels to the base. Once assembled, the seat is compatible with virtually any level workshop floor. Maintenance is equally simple: wipe down the plastic surface with a mild detergent and water to remove grease, oil, or chemical residue. Avoid using abrasive cleaning pads that might scratch the plastic surface. Periodically check the castor wheel attachments to ensure no debris has wrapped around the axles, which could hinder smooth rotation.
