Hello there! Taking apart an electric recliner sofa can feel like a big job, but it's usually designed to come apart in a few manageable steps, which is great for moving. The information you provided wasn't very helpful for this task, so I'll walk you through the general process based on how most models are constructed.
First and foremost, safety is the top priority. Before you do anything else, completely unplug the sofa from the power outlet. This is a crucial step to avoid any electrical mishaps. It's also a really good idea to have a friend on standby to help you, as the individual sections can still be heavy and awkward to lift.
The most common first step is to remove the backrests. Feel for the gap where the backrest meets the seat base. On the outer edges, you should find a small lever or a metal tab for each back piece. You might need to lift the fabric flap on the back to see them clearly. Using your fingers or a flathead screwdriver, flip these levers up to release the locking mechanism. Once unlocked on both sides, the backrest should lift straight up and off its metal tracks.
With the backrests removed, you can now access and disconnect the wiring. You'll see cables connecting the different sections to the motors and power supply. These almost always use simple plastic clip connectors. It's a great idea to snap a quick photo with your phone before you unplug everything so you'll remember exactly how it goes back together. Carefully unclip all the connections between the sofa sections.
Finally, you can separate the main seat sections. The seats are typically connected to each other with interlocking metal brackets. Sometimes, you simply need to lift one section straight up to disengage it from the one next to it. For other designs, you may need to look underneath to find a bolt or lever securing them. Once you've unhooked them, you and your helper can carefully pull the sections apart, leaving you with much smaller pieces that are easier to handle.
