My bench stool is upside down. Add some oil between the two pipes.

Sand the inner pipe if it is not smooth.

Add some clean bearing grease.

Make sure the bearing grease goes as far down as the stool goes.

Add some more oil to the pivit point of the air ram. Clean up before returning the stool to the house.

My office chair upside down.

Oil the spring. Mine is inside the large knob so I put lots on and let it set for an hour.

Add oil to the pivit points.

Remove the clip that holds the legs to the air ram.

Remove these bearings and clean them before applying clean bearing grease. Put some grease on the air ram too.

When the chair is right side up put a little oil between the spring knob and base.

Put your air ram retention clip back on and add more bearing grease to this point.

Office chair is now squeak free.

Use an Allen wrench or whatever you need to really tighten up all the fasteners so you don’t get any hardware squeaks.

My bench stool is now squeak free too!. Thanks for joining.
