from the OFF position to the ON position. Re-install the base shroud.
3.5 Power Up
Plug the chair power cord into a wall receptacle or into the exam stand or cabinet
system. The chair control membrane switches should illuminate to indicate that the
chair is operational. Perform a test of all chair features to verify proper function.
Refer to the operation section of this document for details.
4.0 SYSTEM OPERATION
The OC-2200's sturdy design and manual recline features make it an excellent choice for
Ophthalmic and Optometric exam rooms.
Each of the chair control membrane switch buttons performs a specific function. Refer to
Performance and Specifications for the button symbols and their corresponding functions.
4.1 Elevation Control
Height adjustment of the manual recline ophthalmic chair model OC-2200 is made by
pressing the appropriate arrow button on the membrane switch located at the side of
the back or with an optional footswitch. The chair may also be controlled by the UP,
DOWN and AUTORETURN buttons on the exam stand.
4.2 Recline Control
To recline the patient, press the release button with the thumb and grip the handle in
the back while standing beside the chair. While the button is depressed move the back
to the desired position, then release the button. To return the patient to the upright
position, press the release button again while holding the chair back. The pneumatic
cylinder will aid in returning the back to the upright position.
4.3 Swivel Brake Operation
To rotate the chair, move the swivel brake handle to the released position
(perpendicular to the floor), rotate the chair to the desired position, then move the
swivel brake handle to the activated position (parallel to the floor) to secure the chair
in position.
4.4 Armrest Retraction
One or both of the armrests may be pivoted up out of the way if desired. Press the
latch release button in the middle underside of the armrest then lift up on the

armrest. To return the armrest to the horizontal position, simply pivot the armrest
back down until it latches.
4.5 Headrest Position
The headrest assembly consists of a 2 pivot-articulating clamp as well as a pivoting
pillow mount. The headrest assembly has a very wide adjustment range and can
accommodate any examination situation. The articulating headrest position may be
adjusted as desired by releasing the clamp-locking handle, pivoting the headrest into
position, then re-activating the clamp-locking handle.
4.6 Footrest Retraction
The footrest may be stowed for easier access to the patient, or for closer
examination or surgical purpose. Simply pivot the footrest up by lifting on the
front edge until it clicks into its stowed position.
5.0 ADJUSTMENTS
5.1 Headrest Locking Tension
If the position of the chair headrest has begun to move with the clamp-locking
handle in the locked position, the headrest clamp may require an adjustment.
Follow the instructions below to adjust the headrest assembly.
Headrest Clamp Adjustment
5.1.1 Release the clamp-locking handle. Loosen the Phillips screw in the side of
the clamp body, and then turn the slotted adjustment screw in the end of
the clamp assembly to adjust the clamping tension. (Clockwise for more
tension, counter-clockwise for less tension). Adjust the clamp tension so
that the clamp-locking handle closes easily and the pivots at each end of
the clamp are secure. Repeat the adjustments until the proper adjustment is
achieved. Re-tighten the Phillips screw in the side of the clamp body to
secure the adjustment.
Pillow Mount Pivot Adjustment
5.1.2 Turn the small adjustment screw in the pillow mount clamp to adjust the
pillow mount clamp tension (Clockwise for more tension, counter-
clockwise for less tension. The clamp is properly adjusted when the
headrest pillow position can be adjusted easily, but has enough bind to
remain in the position that it is set to after adjustment.
5.2 Swivel Brake Adjustment
If the chair can be rotated while the swivel brake handle is in the activated
position (parallel to the floor) an adjustment may be required. The swivel brake
adjustment screw is located behind the lift assembly on the underside of the metal
chair seat. If the swivel brake clamping tension is too loose, move the swivel
brake handle to the released position (perpendicular to the floor) and turn the
adjustment screw with an Allen wrench (Clockwise for more tension, counter-
clockwise for less tension) until the proper adjustment is achieved. The swivel
brake is properly adjusted when the chair rotates freely with the swivel brake
released but does not rotate when the brake is activated.

5.3 Armrest Adjustment
The armrests may require periodic adjustment to maintain proper function.
Remove the three arm upholstery mounting screws, and then remove the arm
upholstery to gain access to the arm adjustment screw. Turn the flat head
adjustment screw in the back side of the armrest casting with an Allen wrench to
adjust the amount of play in the armrest latching mechanism (clockwise for more
play, counter-clockwise for less play). The armrest latching mechanism is
adjusted properly when the mechanism engages properly when the armrest is
down, but has minimal vertical play once engaged. Reinstall the arm upholstery
after performing the adjustment.
The armrest height and relative position can be adjusted. Remove the backrest
upholstery to gain access to the adjustment screws. Tighten/loosen the opposing
set screws in the appropriate armrest stop to align the armrests with one another.
Reinstall the backrest upholstery after performing the adjustment.
5.4 Changing Control Switch from Right Hand to Left Hand
Unplug the chair from the AC power source. Remove the back upholstery.
Disconnect the 5-pin connector from the chair membrane switch. Remove the
nylon acorn nut and the 2 mounting nuts, which hold the switch in place in the
back casting. Pull the snap ring off which holds the release button into the
membrane switch. Remove the membrane switch from the back casting. Next
remove the switch blank from the opposite side of the back casting and install it
into the other side. Reroute the cables to the other side of the chair and secure
them in the back casting. Insert the membrane switch into the back casting. Feed
the release button into the membrane switch, and then re-install the snap ring to
secure the button in place. Re-connect the 5-pin connector. Power the chair up
and test for normal operation. If the up and down functions are reversed, rotate the
5-pin connector 180° then re-test. Re-install the back upholstery.
6.0 MAINTENANCE
It is recommended that the exterior surfaces of the OC-2200 chair be cleaned periodically
to preserve the chair's appearance. Cleaning should be performed at least every six
months.
6.1 Cleaning Painted and Nonmetallic Parts
Dirt and oils can be easily removed from painted or nonmetallic chair components
with a mild soap and water solution and a clean damp cloth. Use a soft, clean,
cloth to wipe the chair dry after cleaning.
6.2 Upholstery Cleaning
Use the same procedure as described above.
WARNING: All service (except replacing the two external fuses) and repairs
shall be performed by a qualified technician.
!
WARNING: Do not expose painted or nonmetallic parts or upholstery to any
volatile solvents such as benzene or paint thinner as these agents
may cause permanent damage.

7.0 TROUBLE SHOOTING
If the chair malfunctions or is inoperative, perform the following checks prior to seeking
assistance.
1. Check to see that all connector cords and/or cables are securely connected.
2. Replace any blown fuses.
Fuse Replacement
WARNING: Do not attempt fuse replacement without first disconnecting the
chair from the power source.
!
WARNING: Any service and/or repairs (other than replacement of the two exter-
nal fuses) shall be performed only by a qualified technician.
!
The main power fuses are located in the rear of the base assembly in the LH side plastic shroud.
Unplug the chair from the AC power source. Twisting the fuse cap counter-clockwise and
simultaneously pressing down easily replace the fuses. Carefully remove the fuse and check for
breaks in the filament or for any corrosion at the ends. If in doubt, test the fuses with an
Ohmmeter. Obtain replacement fuses at a hardware/electronics store if it they are damaged or
blown. Once the fuse has been properly inspected or replaced, place it into the cap and re-install
it by turning the cap clockwise and pressing down simultaneously. Note: If the fuse cap is not
fully inserted the unit will not function.
