Back Removal Instructions
– To reduce the risk of injury:
• The back of the unit must be lifted for assembly and disassembly. Please seek
assistance if you are unable to lift at least 45 pounds without strain.
WARNING
5.
Unlock the back brackets and remove the back; there is one back bracket on each side of the back.
•
Insert a slotted screwdriver between the back and one of the chair arms and locate the
locking lever on the back bracket (F
IGURE
4).
•
Carefully pry the back bracket locking lever up to about a 90 degree angle, until unlocked (F
IGURE
4).
•
Repeat these steps for the other back bracket. Once both back brackets are unlocked, the
back is free for removal.
•
For a 1PL or 1PM chair, lift up on the back and remove it from the body. For a 1PH chair, lift up on
the back only high enough to rotate the back forward, toward the front of the chair, and lay it on
the top arms, taking care not to stretch or damage the electrical cables or connections between
the back and the body.
6.
For a 1PH chair with adjustable headrest and lumbar features:
- Disconnect the adjustable headrest feature. Locate the connection with two blue connectors
on the left side (as sitting); one blue 6-pin connector routes from the back and the other
from the body. Open the locking cover and pull out on the connectors to disconnect the
adjustable headrest (F
IGURE
5).
- Disconnect the adjustable lumbar feature. Locate the connection with two gray connectors
on the right side (as sitting); one 3-pin connector routes from the back and the other from
the body. Open the locking cover and pull out on the connectors to disconnect the
adjustable headrest (F
IGURE
5).
7.
Reverse these steps to reinstall the back. For easier installation, lay the back across the chair
arms, lift the back at a slight angle to align the back brackets to the body brackets and rotate
the back up, lowering it onto the body (F
IGURE
6). Verify the back and body brackets are engaged
and lock both back brackets by pushing the locking lever down, refer to Important note below.
– To reduce the risk of injury:
• Do not operate the unit until the back is installed and locked.
WARNING
IMPORTANT:
Always make sure the back is properly installed with
both
sets of back and body brackets
engaged following back removal and reinstallation. To do this, stand behind the chair and
twist the back from side to side. If one or both sides move out of position, the back
brackets are not engaged with the body brackets (F
IGURE
7). Remove the back and reinstall.
If you are unable to install the back properly, contact your La
