6.6 Headrest (Fig.6.3)
To fit the headrest:
Fit the location bracket to the backrest bracket, using the
screws and nuts supplied.
If required, adjust the receiver bracket in a horizontal direction.
Ensure that the bolts are fully tightened.
The headrest height is changed by pressing the spring loaded
locking mechanism and moving the headrest up or down. Let
the locking lever go. When the headrest is in position the lock
will give an audible click.
The headrest to seat depth is adjusted by loosening the hinge
bolts with a 5mm allen key and a 13mm spanner. Adjust the
position and tighten the bolts securely.
To adjust the headrest angle, loosen the screws at the
headrest upholstery, position the headrest as required and
tighten the screws securely.
WARNING!

If a headrest is part of the options selected for the user/
chair, never drive the chair without the headrest attached
•
Never use the chair without a headrest if a person is
transported with the chair in a vehicle.
