How to remove wheels. Step by step

1. Turn the chair over so that the wheels are facing up and you have access to them.
2. Look at the wheels and look for any locking or securing mechanisms they may have. Some wheels may have a locking pin or tab that you need to release before you can remove them.
3. If the wheels are held in place by a pin, use pliers to grab the pin and pull it out . This will release the wheel and allow it to be easily removed. For a locking tab, press the tab inward or downward while pulling the wheel up to disengage it.
4. If the wheels are simply snapped into the bracket, grab the bracket firmly and pull it up and out of the bracket . It may take a little force, but with care you should be able to remove the wheels.
5. Repeat the process for all wheels you wish to remove.
