How to replace the optional
Central Locking Casters
To replace the four casters we recommend placing the sides of
the recliner on wood blocks so that the recliner is about 10” off
the oor. This should be done with one or two helpers.
To Remove the Casters:
1) Rear Casters
a. Loosen the two set screws in the Connecting Levers (item
3) using a 3mm Allen key and a 3/64”Allen key the two set
screws in the collars (item 2).
b. Remove the locking pedal from the hexagon shaft using a
5/32” Allen key.
c. Slide the shaft out of the recliner.
d. Remove the rear casters by pulling them downward out of
the side frames.
2) Front Casters
a. Loosen the two set screws in the Connecting Levers (item
3) using a 4mm Allen Key, and remove the Levers from the
hexagon shafts from the caster actuator assembly.
b. Remove the two machine screws from each CasterActuating
Assembly (item 6) using a #3 Robertson screwdriver.
c. Remove the Caster Actuator Assemblies.
d. Remove the front casters by pulling them downward out of
the side frame.
To Install new Casters:
Very Important: these next steps must be followed in order for
the casters to lock/ unlock properly.
1) Before Installing the Casters
Taking each caster in turn, insert one of hexagon shafts through
the hexagon receptacle in the top of the caster stem and
rotate it counterclockwise with a 7/16” wrench so that the
caster is now in the locked position. If this puts the caster in
the unlock position instead, remove the hexagon shaft, rotate
the caster stem 180 degrees and reinsert the shaft. Rotating
the shaft counterclockwise should now lock the caster. It is
important at this point to note the orientation of the caster as
well: once all four casters have been locked in the prescribed
manner they need to all facing the same way. (See Fig. 1).
2) Rear Casters
a. Maintaining the same orientation as noted in Fig. 1, install
the rear casters.
b. Slide the hexagon shaft through the right side frame and
caster stem until it emerges through the inside of the frame.
c. Slide one of the collars (item 2) on the shaft.
d. Next slide the right side Connecting Lever (item 3) onto
Caster must be
facing this way
Hexagon bushing must be rotated
counter clockwise to lock caster
