Operating and Assembly Instructions
Say good-bye to sitting still!
Congratulations on your purchase of the ONGO®Kit.
With the curved surface of its base, it supports the
natural urge for movement especially in children and
so continuously activates important muscle groups
in all regions of the body. Positive effects of active
sitting in comparison to sitting on static furniture are:
•
Improved concentration and better ability to
learn due to improved blood circulation and up
take of oxygen.
•
Enhancement of coordination and balance, which
play an important role in the development of the
brain and nervous system.
The innovation consists of the curved base and
the integrated balltrack. Every movement on the
ONGO®Kit brings the ball into motion and motivates
you to active sitting.

Best sitting height
Adjust the height of the ONGO®Kit with the sepa
rate height extension kit according to the need of its
user. To do so, you may orient yourself on the DIN
EN 17291:200609. Please note, however, that active
sitting with its tilted position generally calls for taller
sitting heights, which correspondingly call for higher
table tops.
Recommendation of seat heights corresponding to
body height according to DIN EN 17291:200609:
