I have a computer chair that goes up and down with one of those gas strutty things, but i want to dismantle it to store it for a while. The instructions say 'no can do'. Any ideas out there pleez. Thanks Ann.
How do you dis-assemble a computer chair that has a gas strut?
The best way is to unscrew/unbolt the seat from the yoke underneath. There are usually just 4 machine screws. Be sure to note which way faces front, if it's not stamped on the frame.
Some chairs allow you to disassemble the back from the seat and arms. (this is how they are shipped to reduce bulk). Look for screw covers or release levers
You do not want to remove the gas cylinder as they are friction fit and generally you will ruin the cylinder getting it out.
Reply:I think you risk losing the gas if you dismantle it. Not sure if these things can be re-gassed either....
