TravelMateTM Setup Guide

Set up
Thank you for purchasing the Earthlite® TravelMateTM!
A desktop, go-everywhere massage support system that allows
practitioners to bring massage therapy to any home or office. The
TravelMateTM has been specially hand packaged to ensure it
arrives ready for immediate use and is designed to position in
mere seconds when walking through these easy step-by-step
instructions.
Locate both the facepillow
platform and the base
Quick-Release Levers and
pull in the opposite direction
to release.
Locate the chest plate with
the two strips of Velcro that
should be facing the ceiling.
You will twist the chest bar
more than a three-quarters
rotation AWAY from you until
the Velcro strips face you.
You will need to slightly lift
the facepillow platform to
allow the full rotation
needed.
Lock the base Quick-Release
lever while supporting the
facepillow platform. Next,
lock the facecradle platform
lever and push the entire
unit back into the protective
upholstery cover until it butts
up against the edge of the
work surface.
Place the chest pad into place
by aligning it with the oppos-
ing Velcro strip on the chest
bar. The “U”shape of the
chest pad is the top of the
pad. Release the base
Quick-Release Lever to fine
tune the position of the chest
pad to a comfortable angle
and then lock.
Attach the crescent cushion to
the facepillow platform by
aligning it with the opposing
Velcro strips on the facepillow
platform. Release the facepillow
platform Quick-Release lever to
reposition to the desired angle
and then lock.
Remove the TravelMate unit
and carry case from its box
and lay flat on a table or
desk surface with the
facepillow and chest pad
facing up. Open plastic and slide unit out.
Momentarily set aside both the chest pad
and facepillow.
Position the open end of the
TravelMate to the edge of
the table or desk where you
plan to work by aligning the
earth symbol and base
Quick-Release Lever on either side of the
TravelMate with the edge of the working
surface. The front flap of the protective
upholstery pouch will be hanging down.
While supporting the TravelMate, pull it
down a couple of inches from the protective
pouch.

FacePillow and Platform Adjustments
Set up the TravelMate according to the
instructions. Have client seated and
positioned in front of the TravelMate.
Have client lean forward and press into
the chest pad.
To adjust the angle of the facepillow,
locate the Quick-Release Lever and pull in
the opposite direction to release. Client
should grasp both sides of the facepillow
platform when tilting to the desired angle,
then lock by pulling the Quick-Release
Lever in the opposite direction.
To adjust the height of the facepillow,
locate the two black knobs on the back of
the unit. Twist both counter-clockwise to
loosen. Use both hands to pull evenly to
desired height. Secure each knob
independently by turning the knobs
clockwise until firm.
Client is now ready to lean forward,
having their weight supported by the
chest pad and their face comfortably
positioned in the facecradle. Clients can
position their arms on the table (hands
down and either slightly outstretched
or crossed comfortably around the
unit,) in preparation of their treatment.
Caution: Turn knobs firmly unil they stop,
but do not over tighten to avoid damag-
ing the threads.
Please Note: Clients of all shapes and
sizes will enjoy the treatments on the
TravelMate once a few adjustments are
made to accomodate their individual
body sizes and comfort preferences.
Additionally, different positions better
accommodate different types of
treatment.
The TravelMate’s facepillow is designed for infinite adjustments to ensure
optimum positioning and comfort for your clients. Both angle and height
adjustments are made with a few addtional simple steps.

The TravelMate is designed to be easy to assemble and maintain. If
using disposable or cloth facepillow covers, the facepillow and
chest pad will need only a slight wipedown between treatments.
To keep upholstery in good condition, EarthLite recommends
thoroughly cleaning the facepillow and chest pad periodically to
remove all oil residue. Oil and other residues may cause the
upholstery to dry out and become brittle over time. We recom-
mend using the product ViraGuard® (sold by EarthLite) for its
excellent cleaning and disinfectant properties.
Spray a light yet even coat of ViraGuard or any other recommended
cleaner on the upholstery and wipe with a soft cloth. A solution of 1
part mild detergent (such as liquid dishwashing detergent) to 10
parts warm water may be used. Simple Green is another alternative.
The TravelMate’s mere 9 lbs and compact
size make it ideal for treaments on the go.
To fold for storage or transport, release
both Quick-Release Levers and gently lay
the unit back flat onto its self. Carefully
lock both levers. Unfold the provided
carrying case and unzip to open. Place
locked and flat unit into case and zip
close. Small and compact for easy
storage or grip the handle for easy
transport.
DO NOT use HYDROGEN PEROXIDE, ACETONE, PAINT
THINNER, UNDILUTED BLEACH, ARMOR ALL, or other types of
INDUSTRIAL CLEANERS. These will damage the upholstery’s
protective coating and will void the upholstery warranty.
