Height-adjustable tables (HI)
You can read off the preset height
above the edge of the lower part of
the leg.
(Not for tables on castors: these
have limited height adjustment).

Adjusting the height
Pull out the disengage knob*. Keep-
ing it pulled out, carefully adjust
the table to a different height. Then
release the knob and allow it to
click into the desired position. The
leg can be adjusted in 2 cm incre-
ments.
• Note! The table may drop under
its own weight when the knob is
pulled out.
Height-adjustable tables (HI)
A height-adjustable Ahrend 22 table (fig. 3) can be
adjusted to suit your personal requirements. The height
can be adjusted from 68 to 88 cm in increments of 2 cm.
As a rule the table will be adjusted only once, by the
user of the workstation.
Tables on castors (HIM)
An Ahrend 22 table on castors (fig. 4) has lockable cas-
tors. We recommend locking the castors while the table
is in use.
Variable height tables (HVE)
A variable height Ahrend 22 table (fig. 5) lets you adjust
the height of the work surface electrically to suit your
own height and posture at any time. This means that
different people can use the same work table at differ-
ent times in maximum comfort.
An electronic switch on the table edge operates the
mechanism that adjusts the table height between 68
and 88 cm. Several preferred positions can also be
stored in the memory.
The height of your chair
Adjust the height of your chair seat to your dimension A
(see Working out the correct table height). Measure
from a point in the middle of the front edge of the seat.
Footrest
In practice a low table height is often disliked, perhaps
because a person does not want to be sitting lower than
his or her colleagues.
In this case an ergonomically correct sitting posture can
still be achieved with the aid of a footrest. Adjust the
table and chair by raising them a distance equal to the
average height of the footrest.
Variable height tables (HVE)
Tables with an electronic switch are
delivered with a separate manual
for use of the switch.
Locking the castor
Press the pedal on the castor to
lock it.
Unlocking the castor
Lift the pedal with the toe of your
shoe. The castor can then turn
freely again.
