Chair Safety Features Chair Stop Plate

A-dec dental chairs and systems include safety features (like the chair stop plate) that may stop or prevent the chair from moving. This may occur due to any of the following: •

There’s an obstruction under the chair or attached module.

•

The foot control disc or lever is pressed.

•

A handpiece isn’t properly seated in its holder.

If the Chair Stops Unexpectedly or Won’t Move Check for and correct any of the conditions listed above. If an obstruction is blocking chair movement, use the touchpad or footswitch to raise the chair, then remove the obstruction.

Prepare the Chair for the Patient Position the Armrests WARNING Do not allow patients to drop their arms behind the armrests or under the backrest, or injury may occur when the chair moves. Move the armrest out of the way to allow for easy patient entry/exit and improved operator access when working direct. Simply push or pull the armrest into position.

Encourage a Proper Seating Position To properly seat patients in the chair, ask them to sit as far back in the seat as possible. This ensures the best alignment with the lumbar support and comfort for the patient. For optimal comfort, patients can place their forearms on the armrests or keep their arms comfortably folded on their lap. TIP Before the patient sits down in the chair, leave the headrest at a higher position. This will encourage the patient to sit all the way back in the chair. Adjust the headrest once the patient is seated to improve patient comfort and operator access to the oral cavity.

TIP For patients who require additional support to exit the chair, leave the armrests in the back position.

Rotate the headrest 180° and slide the glide bar into the backrest until it stops. 3. Swivel the dental chair, if necessary, and position the backrest to its full upright position. 4. Position the wheelchair and the dental chair back to back. 5. Move the dental chair up or down, as needed, to adjust the headrest height. 6. Lock the wheelchair wheels.

Adjust the 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. To adjust the tension, use a 1/8" hex key. Turn the adjustment screw clockwise to increase tension.

Operate the Chair Swivel Brake The chair can rotate to any position within 30° either side of center. The chair swivel brake restricts rotation of the chair to keep the chair from moving during a procedure. To release the swivel brake, pull the brake lever to the right. To engage the brake, pull the brake lever firmly to the left.

Adjust the Chair Swivel Brake Tension Brake Handle

If the chair swivels left or right with the brake engaged, or is difficult to move with the brake disengaged, adjust the swivel brake tension. Properly tensioned, the brake handle should be in the middle when it is fully engaged. To make the adjustment: 1. Move the brake handle to the right. 2. If the chair includes a back mount module, swivel the chair to access the adjustment screw. 3. Use a 7/64" hex key and turn the tension adjustment screw clockwise to increase brake friction or counterclockwise to decrease brake friction. Only a small adjustment is needed to significantly increase or decrease tension.

Clean / Maintain

Clean / Maintain Protect with Barriers 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 (USFDA). For regions outside the USA, refer to the medical device regulations specific to your location.

NOTE For proper use and disposal of barriers, see the instructions provided by the barrier manufacturer.

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).

Extend the Life of the Upholstery CAUTION Do not use household bleach (sodium hypochlorite) or other products containing chlorine, isopropyl alcohol (greater than 25 percent by volume), or hydrogen peroxide to clean or disinfect the upholstery. It can cause rapid deterioration and damage the product.

86.0761.00 Rev D

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 preserve its luxurious look and soft feel. To clean the upholstery, use a solution of mild dishwashing liquid and water. Use surface disinfectants only when the barriers have been compromised or there is visible spatter on the upholstery. For more information, see the Upholstery Maintenance Guide (p/n 86.0501.00) available in the Resource Center at www.a-dec.com.
