Reclining Tension Adjustment Instructions:

WARNING
- To reduce the risk of injury:
• This unit is equipped with a tension adjustment feature for the reclining mechanism
that is preset at the factory. The tension setting can be changed for your personal
preference. To avoid tipover and assure stability, do not operate the unit with the
tension adjustment wing nuts completely loosened.
NOTICE:
- To reduce risk of product damage:
• Make sure the legrest is closed before tilting forward and adjusting the tension.
• Do not completely tighten the wing nuts. The tension springs should not be completely
compressed after making adjustments. If this occurs, the wing nuts must be loosened
a minimum of 1 ⁄2-turn to avoid damage to the spring tension assembly.
• Do not completely loosen the wing nuts. The spring should not slide on the bolt
after making adjustments. If the spring slides on the bolt, tighten the wing nut
clockwise a minimum of 1 ⁄2-turn, after the spring no longer slides on the bolt.
• Adjust both wing nuts equally.
Reclining Tension Adjustment Instructions
You can adjust the tension of the reclining mechanism to respond to your individual size.
1. Unplug both power transformers from the electrical outlet. Gently roll the reclining chair
forward to rest on its arms and top of the back. Locate the wing nuts, one on each side,
toward the back of the recliner under the reclining seat (only one side shown below).
2. Adjust the tension by turning the wing nuts in ¼-turn increments until the
desired setting is reached.
A taller or heavier person may choose to increase the reclining tension by tightening
•
the wing nuts clockwise.
A smaller person may choose to decrease the reclining tension by loosening the wing
•
nuts counterclockwise.
3. Return the reclining chair to the upright position and test the new setting. Make additional
adjustments if needed, repeating these steps. Plug both power transformers directly into
a wall outlet.
