Tips for perfect positioning
• Adjust seat height higher for those short patients who are having trouble getting
comfortably into the face rest.
• Reduce knee flexion by raising the seat and the chair height. Some patients may
find it more comfortable to put their feet flat on the floor.
• Short, heavy or large-breasted patients will be more comfortable with the face
rest moved toward them, over the chest pad.
• The Sternum Pad (Fig. 1) helps you maximize the effects of treatments. Position
the sternum pad vertically when doing shoulder work or for large-breasted
patients. Position the sternum pad horizontally with the ridge just below the
breasts for pregnant women.
• Use the sternum pad for supporting the cervical region. Replace the face-rest
pad with the sternum pad. Release the cam locks and knobs, and move the
sternum pad so that the ridge of the sternum pad supports the cervical spine.
You may have to lower the seat or provide a foot stool for shorter patients.
• To seat patients backwards in chair, turn the face pad around so that the curve of
the “U” supports your patient’s neck and lower the seat so that it is parallel to
the floor. (Fig. 2)
Folding your chair
1. Release the arm-rest cam lock and the strap to fold the arm rest. ock the cam.
2. Fold down the face rest and relock the cam locks and tighten the knobs (Fig.1).
3. Put the push button on the seat tube into the third hole from the bottom.
4. ean the chair forward and push in the seat. The chair will fold (Fig.2).
Push on the seat to lock it in the folded position.
5. The massage chair has wheels, so you can pull it along smooth surfaces by holding onto the face
rest. Use the spacer bar on the face rest as a handle for pulling your chair. Stand behind the seat
and grab the spacer bar. Pull it toward you.

Cleaning & disinfection
Care of your chair
It is important to visually inspect your chair on a quarterly basis to make sure there are no missing
parts and that all parts are in good working order without excessive wear. Check all nuts, bolts and
screws. Over time they may work their way loose, leading to an unsafe condition. Tighten any of
these if they are loose. Inspect the cable that is used for adjusting the height of the chair for signs of
wear. Replace the cable if there are signs of fraying. The chair should not be used if any problems are
found until they are fixed.
The best way to protect your product is by using sheets, fleeces, and accessory covers that prevent oil
and body contact from occurring. Your table should be cleaned and/or disinfected only as needed.
We recommend cleaning your upholstery fabric to protect it against oil stains and dirt which will
cause cracking and permanent stains over time. Clean your upholstered items when needed using a
mild solution of 4:1 diluted non-alcohol cleaner or some other non-abrasive cleaner. For disinfecting
purposes you may use Protex, MadaCide, Accell TB, Virox (Canada) or a diluted 1/100 bleach solution.
Dry the table immediately after cleaning to remove excess cleaning solution.
Damage caused by cleaners will not
be covered under the warranty.
Using citrus based cleaners or other strong cleaners, such as alcohol, acetone, higher concentrations
of bleach or other products that contain high concentrations of these substances, can shorten the life
of your fabric, or discolor it.
Small rips are easily repaired with V P. Major vinyl damage may require pad replacement.
DO NOT store in temperatures below 0° C or above 35° C. Extreme hot and cold temperatures will
damage the upholstery fabric and may cause cold-cracking, brittleness and stretching. Always keep
your chair away from heaters, electrical appliances and direct sunlight.
