Face Rest Covers
Oakworks sells 3 kinds of face rest covers:
1. Soft flannel
2. Fleece
3. Fitted disposable
1. Lean your chair forward and lift the back of the seat until fully open.
Caution: make sure the cable is fully extended before sitting on the chair.
2. Remove the plastic covering from the wheels and feet.
To change cable setting:
1. Lift seat to relax tension on the cable and remove the “Z” clip
from the seat hole.
2. Insert the “Z” clip into the correct hole and pull back on seat
tube until the cable is taut. The “Z” clip should lay flat against
the seat tube.
To change the seat height:
1. Push in button on seat tube while raising or lowering the seat. (Fig. 2)
Release button when proper height is achieved.
Note: Be sure the push button is fully engaged and the seat tube is not
resting on “Z” clip before sitting on chair.
PUSH BUTTON
ADJUSTMENTS
• Cable System changes the height of the chair. (Fig. 1)
• Lower cable settings position chair low and angled, suited for
shorter therapists.
• Highest cable settings position chair more vertically with the seat
higher off the floor for shorter clients and/or taller therapists.
Caution: These adjustments can only be made when no one is on the chair.
Raising and lowering the seat height also changes the seat angle.
A good basic seat position is when the seat is angled downward toward
the front feet, with the back of the seat higher than the front. Lumbar
strain can be reduced by raising the seat height one to two holes.
