ifications
WARNING
When properly set-up, this chair will operate smoothly.
Check to see that all components work properly. If you
detect a problem, be sure to correct it before use.
NOTES
1. Work Surface For Set-Up:
Use a flat surface, such as a table, to assemble, adjust and check your
chair. This makes the steps easier and helps ensure a correct set-up.
2. Fasteners:
• Many of the screws and bolts on this chair are special high-
strength fasteners and may have special coatings.
• Many nuts are of the Nylock type. They have a plastic insert
to help prevent loosening.
• Only use screws, bolts and nuts provided by Sunrise.
WARNING
1. Use of improper fasteners may cause the chair to fail.
2. Over- or under-tightened fasteners may fail or cause
damage to chair parts.
3. If bolts or screws become loose, tighten them as soon
as you can. Loose bolts or screws can cause damage to
other chair parts causing them to fail.
3. Washers & Spacers:
• Note the position of washers and spacers before disassembly.
• To avoid damage to the frame, replace all washers and spac-
ers when you reassemble parts.
4. Torque Settings:
• A torque setting is the optimal tightening for a particular fas-
tener. Use a torque wrench that measures inch-pounds to
secure screws, nuts and bolts on this chair.
