Welcome to this PostureFit installation guide for the Herman Miller Aeron Classic chair. This tutorial walks you through each step to complete the setup.
1. Remove and Separate the Clip
- Remove the small screw at the bottom of the clip.
- Once the screw is out, take the clip apart as shown.
2. Orient the Chair
- Identify the side with the height adjustment lever and the tension control.
- Face this side to install the PostureFit correctly.
3. Position and Snap the Clip with the Knob
- With the PostureFit knob facing you, place the other piece of the clip behind the frame.
- Snap the part with the knob into place.
4. Create Space for the Screw
- Turn the knob until it forms a triangle shape with one point facing upward.
- This creates enough space to insert and tighten the screw securely.
5. Extend and Route the Cable
- Turn the knob to extend the cable to its maximum length.
- At the bottom center of the back mesh, create a small opening and slide the cable through.
6. Center and Hook the Bracket
- Check that the bracket is centered on the frame and sitting straight.
- Push it upward until it hooks securely.
7. Attach the PostureFit Pad
- Attach the PostureFit pad to the Y bracket.
- Make sure the wider part of the pad is at the bottom.
- Line up the holes in the bracket and the pad so they are ready for the bolts.
8. Insert and Tighten the Bolts
- Separate the bolts.
- Insert one bolt through the side.
- While holding it in place, insert the other and tighten both with a screwdriver.
9. Seat the Cable Tip
- With the cable fully extended, insert the tip of the cable into the larger opening and slide it down as shown.
10. Slide the Bracket onto the Rails
- Slide the bracket onto its rails on the back of the chair.
- Your PostureFit kit is now installed.
Tip: After installation, sit back and turn the knob forward until the lower back support feels comfortable.
