How to properly disassemble a massage chair for easier transport?

Moving a massage chair can be a bit of a challenge, but disassembling a massage chair can make the process a whole lot easier. Now check out how to properly disassemble a massage chair recliner for easier transport.

Step 1: Consult the Manual

Before you start, consult the manufacturer's manual for specific disassembly instructions. This guide is your best resource for understanding how to safely detach parts without damaging the chair's mechanisms.

Step 2: Disconnect Air Hose and Electrical Connection

First, disconnect the air hose and electrical connection from the footrest. This is important to avoid damaging the chair's parts during the move. Check your chair's manual for how to safely disconnect these parts.

Step 3: Remove the Legrest

To make your massage recliner chair lighter and smaller for moving, take off the legrest. This is based on your chair's model instructions. It makes the chair easier to carry and fit through narrow spaces.

Find the legrest release mechanism, usually on the side or under the chair.
Press the release mechanism to free the legrest from the chair.

Take out the legrest and put it aside without harming the chair's parts.

Step 4: Unzip the Footrest

Began with unzipping the footrest. Under the seat cushion, you will find a zip that ties both the footrest and the seat. Unzip it so that you can remove the footrest.

Step 5: Remove the Footrest

The next step is to remove the footrest.

Look for the two clips on both sides of the footrest. This is where the footrest was connected to the chair at the final stages. Unclip them gently.

Then, lean your body with the footrest and pull the footrest out of the holders with both of your hands. Remove the fixing lugs from the crossbars and completely disconnect the footrest.

Disconnect the wires. Remove the bolts and disconnect all the connections. There will be three air hoses, take them all apart.

Lastly, the footrest is now only connected to the link rod. Closely examine it and you will find a bolt. Untie the bolt and the lock with the cotter pin and detach the link rod from the footrest joint. Separate the footrest from the base of the recliner massage chair.

Step 6: Box Them Up

The process is complete. You have successfully disassembled the massaging chair. Now it's time to box them up again. Depending on the availability of boxes, put them together or separately in the boxes.

Step 7: Remove the Armrests

The armrests can be removed by unscrewing the screws that hold them in place. Once the screws are removed, the armrests can be lifted off the chair.

Step 8: Remove the Backrest

The backrest of the chair can be removed by unscrewing the screws that hold it in place. Once the screws are removed, the backrest can be lifted off the chair.

Step 9: Remove the Base

The base of the chair can be removed by unscrewing the screws that hold it in place. Once the screws are removed, the base can be lifted off the chair.

Step 10: Protecting Your Massage Chair During the Move

When moving your reclining massage chair, it's important to protect it from damage. Whether moving it within your home or to a new place, keeping it safe is crucial. This ensures it works well and looks good.

Use moving sheets and plastic wrap to protect your home massage chair, especially when moving it outside your home. These tools shield the chair from mud, dirt, and moisture. They also protect the computer body and other electronics.

Wrap the entire chair, including the base, backrest, and armrests, with moving sheets and plastic wrap. Make sure it's tightly wrapped to avoid scratches and scuffs.

Secure wires and electronic components by tucking them into the chair's frame or using zip ties. Use blankets or padding to cushion the chair and prevent damage.

Step 11: Transporting Your Massage Chair

After you've taken apart and covered your chair that massages, it's time to move it to its new spot. Moving a massage chair is tough because it's big and heavy. But, with the right methods and tools, you can move it safely.

Tilt the chair onto its rear wheels to move it more easily.

Use furniture sliders or a dolly to ease the movement of the chair through doorways and tight spaces.

By following these steps, you can ensure that your massage chair is properly disassembled and protected during transport. This will help you to move it more easily and safely, reducing the risk of damage. And when you're ready to set it up again, you'll have all the parts neatly labeled and ready to go. Happy moving!
