Seat Slip Cover Replacement
1. With the chair in the upright
position, locate the rear corners of
the seat slip cover at the underside
back of the seat framework. Pull
down and back on the seat corners,
releasing the velcro securing the
corners to the seat framework, then
lift the back of the slip cover up
from the seat (Figure 1).
2. Next, release the front of the seat
slip cover from the chair underside
by pulling away the velcro that
secures it along the entire front of
the chair (Figure 2).
3. Remove the seat slip cover and
cushion assembly from the
framework and set aside (Figure 3).
Note:
If the Altus Fabric Chair
“back slip cover” is to be replaced
as well, it is easier to perform if
the seat cover is removed first.
Consider following step 1 on page
2 before continuing below with
step 4.
4. Take the replacement seat slip
cover cushion assembly in hand,
and locate the long strip of velcro
attached to the front underside, at
the inside of the cover against the
cushion (Figure 4).
5. Open the velcro away from the
cushion and slip the front of the
cushion onto the front of the Altus
seat framework allowing the velcro
of the new seat slip cover to be
oriented near the velcro along the
front edge of the seat framework
(Figure 5).
6. Starting at one front corner of the
chair, begin securing the velcro of
the seat cover to the velcro under
the front of the chair, moving from
one side of the front to the other,
taking care to attach it straight.
7. Gently pull the rear fabric triangles
of the seat slip cove over the
back to the underside of the seat
framework and attach to the velcro
(Figure 6).
8. Check the seat slip cover for correct
alignment and/or wrinkles. Remove
and reposition the velcro as needed
to achieve a nice fit.
