Height adjustor or safety rotational device needed
A Southpaw Height Adjustor (5000) may be needed to adjust your equipment to the correct height
for your client. With all Southpaw Enterprises, Inc. Suspended Equipment, a Southpaw Safety
Rotational Device (2000) must be used to prevent damage to your equipment, except where
specified otherwise.
All warranties are void if a Southpaw Rotational Device is not used or used with a rotational device
not approved by Southpaw Enterprises, Inc.
Hanging Strap
• Should the hanging strap come loose during shipping, or when it is removed for cleaning, attach it
to the swing as follows: Wrap the webbing strap around the top of the aluminum frame two times,
looping one end of the webbing under the other end both times. Then attach the safety snap to the
webbing. At this point the webbing should tighten around the frame under load.
To adjust the angle of the swing
• First, remove the client from the swing. Next, loosen the positioning plate knobs on the sides of the
swing until the teeth of the plates disengage. Rotate the angle of the seat to the desired position,
and tighten knobs until the teeth of the positioning plates fully engage. Do not loosen the knobs
more than is necessary to adjust swing. • After adjusting the swing to the proper position, you may
add additional stability to the seat by tying the cords to the outside loop of the frame.
IMPORTANT
• Never adjust the angle of the swing while a client is in the swing. This could result in serious injury.
• Never use the swing without the provided safety restraint system.
• Never leave clients unattended in the Variable Axis Swing.
• Never use the swing without a Safety Rotational Device -- Failure to do so may result in
catastrophic failure of the swing
• Before placing a client in the swing, hang the swing and make sure the hanging strap is in place and
secure. Failure to do this could result in serious injury.
Maintenance checklist: All of the following wear points should be checked on a monthly basis and
recorded on the checklist enclosed:
• Safety Snaps and all metal to metal connections, the Rotational Device and the top loop of the
swing. See Safety Snap Instruction Sheet for maintenance checklist.
Warning
• A Southpaw Safety Rotational must be used at all times. See your Rotational Device Instruction
Sheet for maintenance checklist.
• Check the top loop for wear, be sure the fabric is not worn or frayed. If found, discontinue use until
repaired.
• Check for torn cover or ripped seams. If found, discontinue use until repaired.

Warning: Check ceiling eye bolt for wear and movement. Use a Southpaw Safety Rotational Device
to prevent abnormal wear. Floor mats of proper thickness should be positioned appropriately under
and around
Note: When replacing Safety Snaps or Rotational Devices due to normal wear use only Southpaw
replacements.
We do not recommend the use of aluminum safety snaps or carabiniers although they may be lighter
in weight or less expensive. Aluminum snaps will wear much faster than steel snaps. This wear may
present a health hazard from handling with possible ingestion of aluminum particles.
Matting precautions: Always use appropriate matting.
Storage procedures
• Store out of direct sunlight
• Store where not accessible by clients without proper supervision.
Cleaning instructions
• Check for client allergies firts.
• Check with your infectious disease department before using these procedures.
• Fabric machine washable cold water mild detergent.
• Air dry (do not tumble dry –cover will melt in dryer).
• Clean frame with a damp cloth using soap and water or disinfectant.
Caution
•Check ceiling eye bolt for wear and movement. Use a Southpaw Safety Rotational Device to
prevent abnormal wear.
•Floor mats of proper thickness should be positioned properly under and around all suspended
equipment.

activity area, proper installation and maintenance of your equipment is critical. Southpaw
equipment is not intended for recreational or outdoor use. Under no condition should this
equipment be used without proper supervision.

your facility.

7. Instruction Sheet Variable Axis Swing Footrest
Materials list: - Variable Axis Swing Footrest
-Instruction Sheet
-Maintenance Checklist
Attaching the footrest
• With your Variable Axis Swing empty, tilt the seat back until it is parallel with the floor.
• Remove the rubber end caps from the long straight tubes of the footrest. These will be replaced
later.
• Remove the footrest clamps from the end of the long straight tubes by loosening the knobs and
separating the two halves. Do not confuse the clamp with the positioning plate. The positioning
plates are round with many teeth.
• Place the clamps onto the inner hoop of the Variable Axis Swing (the hoop with the seat on it), just
above the swing’s positioning plates. The knobs should be facing away from the swing, and the
clamp should extend downward. Do not tighten the clamps yet. At this point, the hole in the clamp
that will accommodate the long straight footrest tubes should be below the seat. Note: The footrest
clamps may have numbers stamped into one end. The clamp halves with the same numbers must
remain a pair, and the ends with the numbers must be kept together. Failure to do so may result in
an improper fit of the clamp.
• Place the footrest just under the seat of the Variable Axis Swing, with the zipper on the material
covered end facing the floor.
• Slide the long straight tubes into the available hole in the clamp. Adjust the footrest to the desired
length, and tighten the clamps. The clamp will be angled slightly inward.
• Replace the rubber end caps onto the ends of the long straight tubes of the footrest. At this point,
the footrest should be firmly attached to the Variable Axis Swing.
Changing the angle of the footrest
• Loosen the knobs on the positioning plates of the footrest until the teeth disengage. Change the
angle of the cloth covered section to the desired position, and tighten the knobs until the teeth fully
engage. Do not loosen the knobs more than necessary to adjust the footrest.
Changing the length of the footrest
• To adjust how close the material covered end of the footrest is to the seat, loosen the knobs on the
footrest clamps (not the positioning plates) and slide the long straight tubes of the footrest to the
desired position. Tighten the clamps until the footrest is once again firmly held by the clamps.
Loosen the clamps only enough to slide the tubes to the proper position.
