Double-Articulating Gliding Headrest The double-articulating headrest includes several adjustment features that improve your access to the oral cavity and increase patient comfort. Use the glide bar to accommodate a variety of patient heights. Simply pull up or push down on the headrest until it is in the desired position. The gliding headrest cushion provides additional height adjustment. CAUTION When the glide bar has reached its maximum recommended working height, a warning will be visible on the patient’s side of the glide bar. Do not use the headrest in a position where this warning is visible. Glide Bar Locking Knob

Headrest Glide Bar Tension If the headrest drifts downward, or if it is difficult to move up or down, the glide bar tension needs adjustment.

Slide the headrest glide bar up until it is free from the dental chair. 2. Rotate the headrest 180° and slide the glide bar into the backrest. Ensure that the glide bar is pushed completely into the backrest. 3. Position the backrest to its full‑up position. 4. Place the wheelchair and the dental chair back to back to position the patient. Adjust the headrest height by moving the dental chair up or down. 5. Ensure that the wheels of the wheelchair are locked.

Patient-Adjustable Neck Support Correct Orientation

On backrests with the integrated neck support, ensure that the cushion is in the correct position as the patient is seated. Place the cushion below the occipital bone for optimal patient comfort. Properly positioned, the cushion glides with the patient as the chair back is raised or lowered. The neck support can be removed for cleaning or to accommodate small children. To remove, grasp the back of the neck support firmly and pull the cushion out of the track. To reinstall, press the neck support into the track until it snaps into place. Be sure the cushion is oriented correctly An illustration on the back shows the correct orientation.

Patient Positioning To properly seat patients in the chair, ask the patient to sit as far back in the seat pocket as possible. This ensures the best alignment with the lumbar support and headrest. For optimal comfort, patients should place their forearms on the armrests or keep their arms comfortably folded on their lap. WARNING Do not allow patients to drop their arms behind the armrests or under the backrest during chair movement. Always take extra care with small children and patients with limited mobility.

Armrests Armrest Rotation The armrests come locked from the factory, but can be unlocked to allow for easier patient entry/exit and to improve operator access while working direct. To unlock the armrests, use a 3/16" hex key to remove the stop screw from the back of the armrest. Install the stop screw in the front of the armrest.

Armrest Rotation Tension Adjustment If the unlocked armrests become loose or are difficult to move, you can adjust the rotation tension. Use a 1/8" hex key and turn clockwise to tighten or counterclockwise to loosen the rotation tension screw.

Clean / Maintain Barrier Protection A-dec recommends barrier protection for all applicable touch and transfer surfaces. Touch surfaces are areas that come into contact with hands and become potential cross-contamination points during dental procedures. Transfer surfaces are areas that come into contact with instruments and other inanimate objects. In the USA, barriers must be produced under the Current Good Manufacturing Practice (CGMP) as specified by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (US FDA). For regions outside the USA, refer to the medical device regulations specific to your location.

CAUTION If you use barriers, always replace the barrier film after each patient.

86.0093.00 Rev D

IMPORTANT For recommendations on cleaning and chemical disinfection of touch and transfer surfaces (where barrier protection is not applicable or when barriers are compromised), please see the A-dec Equipment Asepsis Guide (p/n 85.0696.00) included with your equipment.

Clean / Maintain

Upholstery To preserve the quality of your A-dec upholstery, use barrier covers instead of relying on chemicals. Barriers significantly extend the life of the upholstery and will help to preserve its luxurious look and soft feel. To clean the upholstery, use a solution of mild detergent and water. Use surface disinfectants only when the barriers have been compromised or if there is visible spatter on the upholstery. CAUTION Minimize the use of surface disinfectants on the upholstery. Chemicals can cause deterioration and shorten the life of upholstered surfaces. For recommendations on maintaining your A-dec upholstery, see the Upholstery Maintenance Guide (p/n 86.0501.00), which is located on www.a-dec.com.

Toeboard Cleaning To remove scuffs, scrapes, and stains from the non-upholstered portion of the toeboard (if applicable), follow these steps: 1. Remove the vinyl toeboard cover. 2. Wet the foot area with water from a spray bottle or wet towel. 3. Apply a mildly abrasive kitchen or bath cleanser. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions. 4. Use a soft towel to rub the cleanser in a circular motion over the entire surface. 5. Remove the cleanser with clean water and a clean towel. 6. This process may be repeated for blemishes that require additional cleaning.
