 MULTI-AXIS HEADREST 

The Multi Axis headrest has a pivot ball at the bottom to 

permit up to 3” of lateral movement. The kit is supplied 

with additional hardware consisting of nuts and bolts to 

replace the quick latch system if desired. It also comes with 

a second vertical bar that can add another 2” of movement 

in all directions. 

NOTE

 - 

When pushing the Quick Latch back in, it should be hard 

and stiff to close down. It should leave a pressure mark in your 
palm. If it still moves after that, repeat by tightening the nut, not the 
latch. The first time it is tightened, usually the star washer on the 
inside will “break” the paint. The second time, it will be firmly set 
into the metal and hold well. 

If this is still an issue, every headrest is supplied with 

replacement nuts and bolts, so it can be locked in place.
