Therefore, the furniture you use in your office should contribute to this atmosphere, including your chair. It\u2019s common for office chairs not to fit a WFH employee\u2019s expectations, but you can improve your chair by installing a swivel rocker base. Learn how to do so in this quick guide!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Choosing the Right Swivel Rocker Base<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before going over the installation process, you\u2019ll need to find a suitable rocker base for your chair that matches your preferences. There are a few different chair bases, such as the standard swivel base with a 360-degree swivel function, allowing you to easily change your position without physically moving your chair. There\u2019s also the swivel and tilt base, offering better functionality and allowing you to tilt and rock your chair for added comfort. The last choice is a rocker base with a reclining feature (popular among home office workers who also game). This chair swivel style offers higher levels of relaxation thanks to the reclining ability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Preparing for Installation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before installing your swivel rocker base, gather the necessary tools and materials, including a power drill, screws, and a screwdriver. You may want someone to help you with the process, as some chairs can be heavy or awkward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step-by-Step <strong>Guide to Installing Your Swivel Rocker Base<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Follow these instructions to learn how to install a swivel rocker baseon an office chair. Rely on your manufacturer\u2019s instructions to accurately place the screws. Also, if any tools come with your pivot base, ensure you use those.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Remove the Existing Base<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Flip your chair upside down to access the underside. Use a screwdriver to remove the screws holding the existing base and carefully remove them from the chair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Attach the Swivel Rocker Base<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Mounting your swivel rocker base requires two springs at the front and one at the rear. If you want to restrict rocking, move the base back; if you want easier rocking, move it forward. However, avoid placing the base too far forward to prevent tipping from the back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Secure the Base With Screws<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, ensure you align the base with the holes in the chair. Use your power drill to drive the screws through the holes in the base and into the chair. Be cautious not to overtighten the screws, as this could damage the chair frame.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Test the Functionality<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Flip your chair back upright and give the swivel and rocking functions a test run. If everything feels smooth and secure, you\u2019re ready to enjoy your upgraded chair!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After reading this guide, you\u2019re ready to improve your chair\u2019s functionality!
