Here you go matey, see attachment.

Installing and removing the armrests
Swing the armrests up.
Press the swivel hinge of the armrest against the backrest and as you do so
pivot the armrest back by about 45°. The armrest can be removed in this
position. Cover the armrest socket with the appropriate caps.
To install, place the armrest into the socket in the 45° position - the unit may
otherwise be damaged. Press the swivel hinge gently against the backrest
and pivot the armrest forwards.
Note:
Do not use force when fitting or removing the armrests.

Hi, I am unable do that as I only have my original one, I scanned that page and uploaded it with a lot of difficulty, due to the forums attachments limits.

Somehow, I will try to do this for everybody at some stage.

Once up, I think you have to 'push' the armrest against the seat, and hold it there, while moving it backwards, which then allows it to move back to the 45 degree angle.
