Video tutorial

Removing and refitting the seat lever requires some skill and ability. As we see in the video, the first step is to understand how the lever is made and how it works.

Once observed carefully, locate the lock on the seat that allows the seat to move forward. First, use two screwdrivers to detach the lever.

Once removed, use pliers on the seat lock that we will notice; it will move as activated by the lever. With the seat tilted, you can finally insert the new lever; a light pressure will suffice, and then return the seat to an upright position.

For safety, perform some tests.
