Are there any tricks so that I can easily remove the seat and adjusters etc as one assembly? Have there been any good discussion threads on this??

You can then unbolt and remove the adjusters but they shouldn't be in your way anyway. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2000 Posts: 988 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Feb 2000 Posts: 988 | There may be 3 screw that hold the upper part of the top section to the frame. Well at least there were on my 49. But other then that top holds the bottom in. Take the top out and the bottom lifts out from the back side of the seat. You will see.

Takes about 10 minutes to get it out, 15 if you are strong and by yourself. As mentioned b/f you shouldn't need to remove the adjusting portion, shouldn't be in the way. Just leave the top portion of the bench connected to the frame and pull the whole thing out. Be careful when you set it down, b/c the thin railing underneath the bench can easily bend. It also bends back pretty easy so long as you don't crease it. Good luck.
Whad you do?!?

It might take a little bit to lift it free of the frame but you ought to be able to see a couple of sturdy semi-'J' hooks attached to the cushion that hold it to the frame once it has been lifted.
