All i can say it is excellent machine but you need sometimes practicing to get excellent coffee.You also need little effort to pull the lever down.

Hello,This really depends on your grind, on the amount of coffee that you have in your filter and how strong your tamp was, but with all those balanced it is possible to perform the task by anyone, it is an awesome instrument to work with.Hope this can be of help to you, good luck.

It depends on how finely you grind your beans and how tightly you pack it. My wife makes her espresso just fine, so I'm sure yours will too.

It all depends upon how finely ground the coffee is and how tightly it's packed in the holder. Essentially, you control the amount of pressure required.

It doesn't require much pressure, my wife uses ours regularly. She is fit, but not muscular.

The lever is what we used to secure the bar in place. It required a firm push to ingage it.

It is a manual lever and very easy to use. They are plastic so I suggest being careful. I have not had any problems. Love it☺

The lever is for adjusting up and down. Try turning the round knob underneath the seat. That seems to help the tension when leaning back.

Make sure you push the lever all the way down while holding the soap dish against the wall. It took a bit of 'muscle power' for me to do.

I would estimate it takes approximately 5 to 8 pounds of "pull" to retract the adjustment knob. Send it or take it back. Jeff

I'm guessing that you used the lever on it to lower it? Try doing it when your not sitting on it. You'll need 2 people though. That's why I returned it. It's very difficult to use. Good luck

the problem i had after opening the box, was that i couldnt move the red lever in the right. it was very hard and did not want to break it. so i put oil with a paint gun and after it was softer. i think we have to move this red lever with care because the movement to tight a side of the metal slider, is very short. no force it we can break the lever. after this care treatment. the plate We can easily squeeze and release.

I was having a problem with pushing down the slide release lever, installing the extended slide release lever made it easier to push the lever down with less effort. .

I do think that lever is to keep the steps from mashing little fingers. I may have it on backwards but it does keep the steps in.place when closed up. That's my best guess

Yes, my wife has problems tightening the upper section to the lower half. It seems like it 1/8 extra tightening to works. I've notice that the handle is typically within 90 degrees of the pressure relief valve on the lower half.

You pull the orange lever at the bottom until it clicks. It does require force, but my 6 year olds can do it after some practice

In addition to pulling the lever out, there's a knob under the chair which adjusts "tilt tension" which is pre-set to be very tight. Turn the knob counter-clockwise to loosen it - that should make it easier to tilt.

Is the plunger all the way up into where the lever is? Check that first. If it still does it then you might have a defective one. Play with it and see if you can get it to work properly. Good Luck!!

That's a good question . I dragged it . Was not easy. I'd add fuel and start it . Drive it off . She started on 2nd pull . Things a bear to move when its not running

Some has to sit on the seat, and push down om the lever. HOWEVER, someone has to be heavy in order to get the seat down. I weigh 124 pounds, and I could not do it. My son-in-law could do it. Otherwise, I love the seats.

An adult could probably get it open. There is peice that slides to let you operate the lever handle. A small child could probably not figure it out.
