Adjust its legs to prevent wobbling on uneven ground. It doesn&#8217;t need to be completely level. Then simply stack the chair platform on top of the octagonal base (the turntable bearing on the back of the chair platform sits in the cavity of the octagonal base). Open up the collapsed chair assembly and place it onto the four rubber guides on the chair platform. (regarding the zero gravity chair: prior to assembly, it had been collapsed and stored away with its binocular holder attached).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Clamp on the remaining sections: Slide in the chair front counterweight, which normally doesn&#8217;t require any weight adjustment. Clamp on the wheel mount crossbar with the two nylon wingnuts. This mount self-adjusts to the chair frame geometry and to the required height off of the octagonal base. Finally, install your binoculars and adjust the rear counterweight if necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:21px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-small-font-size\"><a href=\"https:\/\/milkywaylounge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/mwl_5_parts-Medium-1.jpeg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">This work<\/a> \u00a9 2026 by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.milkywaylounge.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Milky Way Lounge<\/a> is licensed under <a href=\"https:\/\/creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by-nc\/4.0\/?ref=chooser-v1\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">CC BY-NC 4.0<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It takes just a couple of minutes, once you have the bino-chair sections out and ready to go.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":377,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":true,"template":"single-with-sidebar","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[13,21,30,29,28,26],"class_list":["post-549","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-bino-chair-usage","tag-binocular-chair","tag-binocular-mount","tag-binocular-stargazing","tag-binocular-tripod","tag-binoculars-for-astronomy","tag-hold-binoculars-steady"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/milkywaylounge.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/549","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/milkywaylounge.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/milkywaylounge.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/milkywaylounge.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/milkywaylounge.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=549"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/milkywaylounge.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/549\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1466,"href":"https:\/\/milkywaylounge.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/549\/revisions\/1466"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/milkywaylounge.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/377"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/milkywaylounge.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=549"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/milkywaylounge.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=549"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/milkywaylounge.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=549"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
