ROHO Cushion Guide
INSTRUCTIONS FOR ADJUSTMENT
ROHO® Cushion
STEP 1: Remove Product from Packaging
Congratulations. You now own a ROHO cushioning
product designed and manufactured so you can achieve
the highest possible level of performance and personal
satisfaction.
STEP 2: Check Items
Your product should have come with the cushion, cover,
manual, and hand-operated air pump.
NOTE: Cover (included) is recommended for use, but
omitted from these instructions for graphic presentation.
Please use the yellow rope handle to lift and carry your
cushion.
STEP 3: Place the Product
Place your ROHO cushion on the chair, making sure it is
centered and right side up, with the air valve in the front
left corner.
STEP 4: Open the Air Valve
Turn valve counter-clockwise to open.
STEP 5: Get Pump
The pump has a flexible rubber hose.
STEP 6: Fit Pump Hose Over Valve
Slide the collar of the pump over the valve.
STEP 7: Pump Air Into Cushion
Inflate cushion until it begins to slightly arch upward.
STEP 8: Remove Pump and Close Valve
Remove the pump and quickly close the air valve by
twisting in a clockwise direction. To avoid any loss of air,
you may also close the air valve prior to removing the
pump hose from the valve.
STEP 9: Place Person On Chair
Gently place person on chair, making sure the ROHO
cushion is centered underneath.
STEP 10: Settle Person
Place the individual on the cushion in his/her normal
sitting position.
STEP 11: Position Hand for Adjustment
Slide your hand between the cushion surface and the
person's bottom and feel for the lowest bony
prominence.
STEP 12: Properly Position the Hand
Usually, the lowest bony area will be the ischial
tuberosity or 'sit bones'. If you are not sure, lift the
person's leg slightly and you should feel the bony area
move in your hand.
STEP 13: Begin Releasing Air
Rotate valve counter clockwise to begin letting out air,
while keeping your hand under the person's sitting
bones.
STEP 14: Cushion Lowers
Allow cushion to lower until you can barely move your
finger tips (approx. ½ inch or 1.25cm)
STEP 15: Close Valve
Rotate valve clockwise to close.
STEP 16: Check Cushion Height
Wiggle fingers to make sure there is approximately ½
inch of air between person and bottom.
Caution: Avoid 'bottoming out'. The cushion is most
effective when there is air between all parts of the person
and the chair. If the person has bottomed out, please
add air and repeat the process.
