What's the difference between tilt lock and tilt tension on an office chair?

Set it so reclining requires moderate pressure from your normal seated position — not too loose, not too tight. Tilt tension (a knob under the seat) adjusts the resistance required to recline. Tilt lock is a separate lever that locks the chair at a specific position. Use tilt lock for forward-leaning concentrated work; leave it unlocked for extended reading or screen work where periodic recline is beneficial.
