How do I replace the gas lift of my office chair? (HÅG, RH)
Replacing the gas lift of your HÅG or RH office chair can be done in two ways: using a special tool that our technicians use, or through an alternative do-it-yourself (DIY) method. We explain both methods step by step.
Option 1: The do-it-yourself method
For this method, you don't need any special tools. All you need is a hammer, a wooden block, and a piece of tape. If the gas lift isn't extremely tight, this method works well. Carefully watch the video below for detailed instructions on how to safely replace the gas lift.
Note: Replacing the gas lift this way is done at your own risk. If you have any doubts, you can always send the chair to our repair center for professional assistance.
