The Optimum 1400’s optional articulated profiled headrest provides precise
positioning for the head. It can be easily adjusted to meet most positioning
needs. It is easily removable for transfer maneuvers.
IMPORTANT: ALWAYS REMOVE THE HEADREST WHEN USING A TRANSFER AID.
FAILURE TO DO SO MAY RESULT IN DAMAGE, INJURY OR DEATH.
ARTICULATED HEADREST
Headrest installation
1. At the back of the backrest, loosen
the knob on the top bracket.
2. Remove the top of the backrest
holding both sides.
3. Slide the square shaft of the
profiled headrest into the
support bracket.
4. Loosen the memory ring on the
shaft and tighten the spline knob
on the docking bracket to lock the
headrest at the proper height.
5. Tighten the memory ring on the
shaft to lock the configuration in.
Use the three knobs on the plates that connect the headrest to the
chair for adjustment.
The cushioned headrest is mounted on three hinged plates that can
change in profile and position. The two outer plates are connected to
the central one and can be moved. These are adjusted at the factory
to provide adequate resistance to adjustments but can be tightened
or loosened as needed.
A fourth knob behind the headrest enables you to move it laterally.
