Jury Base Seating Installation Instructions
(This section pertains to the Acclaim Jury Base Seating model.)
(Note: See Exploded Assembly [Figure 25] and Floor Mounting Details [Figure 28] on following pages.)
1. Use approved floor plan to establish hole locations for the bases.
2. When mounting chairs over carpet, punch four 5/8" diameter holes in carpet to match holes in the base. Bolt
base (A) to floor as per the appropriate anchoring method. Use 1/4" flat head machine bolt or wood screws and
countersink lock washers. Hand-tighten bolts to allow for some slight movement. (See figure 28.)
3. Insert the column (B) into the base (A) and slide the two-piece column shroud (C) over the column.
4. Attach the mechanism (D) and seat (H) to the frame assembly (E) by using four 1/4-20 x 1” pan head machine
screws and four split lock washers. The screws will pass through the mechanism and the frame assembly to
engage T-Nuts embedded in the underside of the seat.
5. Attach back (J) as follows: From the front of the chair, slip the back panel over the frame assembly with the top
brackets sliding over the top of the frame assembly and the bottom brackets sliding under the frame assembly.
Installing the back panel from the front of the frame insures that the back brackets on the upholstered back do
not scratch the paint at the rear of the frame. Align slots in the back brackets with the threaded holes in the
frame assembly (four locations for each back) and insert a 1/4-20 x 1/2” SEMS machine screw in each location.
Center the back panel and hand-tighten all screws first, then tighten securely.
6. Gently place the assembled chair over the column (B), insuring proper directional orientation. After confirming
correct alignment, apply a load to center of the frame in order to assure full engagement of tapered connections
between mechanism, column, and base.
7. Attach the right armrest (F) and left armrest (G) to the frame assembly using two #8 x 3/4” pan head sheet metal
screws for each armrest.
8. Tighten all floor attachments securely. Adjust the column shroud (C) to hide the steel cylinder (B).
