OPERATION
WARNING: Disconnection of the Device: In case of emergency, always disconnect
the device by removing the power cord plug from the power outlet.
TENTE®CASTERS
WARNING: Casters must be locked at all times, except during transport.
All Lumex Clinical Care Recliners now feature
the latest design, all-plastic casters from TENTE.
Specically designed for use in healthcare
environments, the new casters are easier to clean,
easier to move, and tolerate a wide array of cleaners
and chemicals. Each caster is made from high-
grade synthetic materials and features a double-ball
bearing swivel head. The wheel center is made of
polypropylene and the tire tread of TENTEprene
(thermoplastic rubber). The gray non-marking tires
feature precision ball bearings.
Locking casters: Each Lumex Clinical Care Recliner
features three total locking casters, identied by
black actuator tabs, that lock both the wheel and the swivel. To activate the total lock,
simply press down on the BLACK actuator tab until it locks. To release the total lock, press
on the raised portion of the actuator tab until the lever is back in the normal operating
position.
Directional (swivel) caster: The fourth caster, located on the right rear position of the
recliner, is a directional (swivel) locking caster only. Identied by a green actuator tab, the
directional lock caster will lock in one of two 180-degree positions relative to the frame
(forward and backward) and allows the recliner to track straight when pushed. To activate
the directional lock, simply press down on the GREEN actuator tab until it locks — you may
need to move the recliner slightly until the caster locks in a straight line with the recliner
frame. To release the directional lock, press on the raised portion of the actuator tab until
the lever is back in the normal operating position.

GAS SPRING TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
Info: The gas spring has been pre-adjusted at factory.
The gas spring on your recliner provides counterbalancing forces, and is self-locking for
innite, precise positioning. Unlocking the gas spring is controlled by actuating the lever
located on the padded push handle on the back of the recliner. When the lever is actuated
it pulls on the cable which in turn pulls on a hinge, depressing a button at the end of the
gas spring rod. If the gas spring does not unlock when the lever is actuated or if it remains
permanently unlocked when the lever is actuated, the cable must be adjusted.
Adjusting Cable Tension
1. Remove the one screw and cable clip which secure the
cable to the upholstered back. Remove the gas spring
from the recliner by disassembling the two ring cotter
pins and the two clevis pins that secure the gas spring to
the back / frame.
2. Lower the back until it rests on the stop bars on the
recliner frame. Loosen the lock nut on the gas spring.
3. Hold the hinge assembly while turning the gas spring until
the cable just becomes taut. Back off the gas spring an
additional half turn.
Info: If the gas spring was not unlocking when the
lever was actuated, the gas spring must be turned
clockwise. If the gas spring was not locking when the
lever was released, the gas spring must be turned
counter-clockwise.
4. Retighten the lock nut.
5. Reassemble the gas spring to the back of the recliner by
replacing the clevis pins, bridge pins, and re-attach cable
to back of recliner with the screw and cable clip.
6. Actuate the recliner in accordance with the operating
instructions to verify correct adjustment.

Heat and Massage Unit Troubleshooting Guide
The cables and connections need to be validated. This will require the services of a
maintenance person and a clear working area.
1. INSPECTION: Perform the following checks. If a working recliner of the same model is
available, use it for comparison.
a) Is the AC cord properly connected to the power supply? Is the cable from the power
supply to the control module junction box in place?
b) With the power supply AC cord plugged into a live AC outlet, does the small light to
the left of the white seat symbol (located on the switch) light up when the switch is
pressed repeatedly or is there any indication of massage operation?
WARNING: Disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet before performing the
following steps!
c) Is there any sign of external damage to the handheld pendant or wire?
d) Is there any sign of external damage to the recliner?
e) Do any of the cables show any sign of damage or pinch points?
f) Are all cable connections to the control module in place? Are the connectors fully
engaged?
g) Are any of the connectors damaged?
h) Are the wires within the connectors attached to the pins? Each wire may have to be
tugged lightly to check if the wire is still crimped to the pin.
2. POST-INSPECTION:
a) If improper or loose connections are found, reconnect them rmly (unless a loose
wire has been found). Plug the power supply AC cord into a live wall socket and
operate the unit through all functions.
b) If the handheld pendant or wire is damaged, notify Graham-Field so that a handheld
pendant can be sent for replacement.
c) If damage to any other electrical cable or component, or disconnected wires are
found, please notify Graham-Field.
3. ACTIONS:
a) If full operation is restored, please advise Graham-Field of your successful outcome.
b) If the fault cannot be corrected by simple re-connection, please inform Graham-Field
of the results of your inspection in detail so that we may determine the appropriate
action to be taken.
If you have any questions about the setup and / or operation of the Heat and Massage Unit,

• Step 4 (all other tough stains): use a straight application of naphtha (lighter uid). Rinse
thoroughly with clean water and pat surface dry. If the stain persists, go to step 5.
• Step 5: use a 1:1 mix of isopropyl alcohol and water. If the stain persists, use straight
alcohol. Rinse thoroughly with clean water and pat dry.
Info: For cleaning that requires step 4 or 5, use a soft cotton cloth saturated with
the cleaning material and rub the stain in circles 10 times. Pat dry with another
soft cotton cloth and check the results.

CDC RECOMMENDATIONS
CLEANING AND DISINFECTING STRATEGIES FOR ENVIRONMENTAL SURFACES IN
PATIENT-CARE AREAS FOR VINYL UPHOLSTERY, WALL COVERINGS AND FLOORING
• Select EPA-registered disinfectants, if available, and use them in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions.
• Do not use high-level disinfectants / liquid chemical sterilants for disinfection of either
noncritical instruments and devices or any environmental surfaces; such use is counter
to label instructions for these toxic chemicals.
• Follow manufacturers’ instructions for cleaning and maintaining noncritical medical
equipment.
• In the absence of a manufacturer’s cleaning instructions, follow certain procedures:
• Clean noncritical medical equipment surfaces with a detergent / disinfectant.
• Do not use alcohol to disinfect large environmental surfaces.
• Use barrier protective coverings as appropriate for noncritical surfaces that are:
• Touched frequently with gloved hands during the delivery of patient care.
• Likely to become contaminated with blood or body substances.
• Difcult to clean (e.g., computer keyboards).
• Keep housekeeping surfaces (e.g., oors, walls, tabletops) visibly clean on a regular
basis and clean up spills promptly.
• Use a one-step process and an EPA-registered hospital detergent / disinfectant designed
for general housekeeping purposes in patient-care areas where:
• Uncertainty exists as to the nature of the soil on the surfaces (whether it is blood or
body uid or just normal dust or dirt).
• Uncertainty exists regarding the presence of multi drug resistant organisms on such
surfaces.
