Whenthe massageris removedfromthe chair, the position of the up/downdetection gear
changes, resulting ina change of the up/downstop position.
Wheninstalling the massageron the back frame, be sure toadjust the position withthe up/
downdetection gear.
Up/downdetection gearposition adjustment procedure
To make anadjustment, refertothe massagerremoving method (the back frame is tiltedfrom
the chair).
1. Before mounting, the massager on the back frame must be moved
downto the lowest position bysetting the controller manual
operation UP/DOWNbutton to DOWN.
2. Mount the massager on the lowest position of the back frame.
3. Turn the hex nut M6 counterclockwise and move the massager
upward.
4. Make sure that the massager has been mounted horizontallyby
moving the massager to the position showninthe Figure.
*Unless the massager has been mounted horizontally, an

setting the controller manual operation UP/DOWNbutton to UP.
6. Peeping into the square holeof the back frame, check the
position of the massager to adjust.
*One thread of the up/downdetection gear gives astroke change
of 4mm.
Whenthe massagerhas beenraisedexcessively: Turnthe up/downdetection gearclockwise to
adjust.
Whenthe massagerhas beenloweredexcessively: Turnthe up/downdetection gear
counterclockwise toadjust.
Whileadjusting the distance between the square holeand Guide
roller assy. to 30~35mm, check byusing the up/downadjustment
button found on the manual operation panel of the controller.
7. Install the rail piece Aand B, and tighten uniformlythe set screws
(left and right, 3pcs. each).
