To reduce the risk of electric shock always unplug this product from the electrical outlet and
disconnect the battery before reaching inside, cleaning, maintenance, or servicing. Do not operate
the chair unless all four (4) wheels are resting on the floor.
1. Unplug this product from the electrical outlet when not in use.
2. Supervision should be provided when using this product.
3. Use this product only for its intended use as described in this manual.
4. DO NOT use attachments not recommended by the manufacturer.
5. Never operate this product if it has a damaged cord or plug, if it is not working properly, if it has been dropped or damaged,
or dropped into water; the product will need to be removed from service. Contact an authorized Winco service center for
instructions.
6. DO NOT carry or pull this product by the power supply cord or use the cord as a handle.
7. Keep the cord away from heated surfaces.
8. DO NOT use outdoors.
9. To disconnect, push the emergency stop button on the control box (see page 19), then remove the plug from the outlet. Pull
the molded plug end only to remove the cord; never pull on the cord only.
10. Clean the switch with a damp cloth only. Warranty will be VOID if liquid is introduced into the switch mechanism(s) or any
electrical components.
11. Extension cords are not recommended.
12. DO NOT roll recliner or other equipment over the cord and always keep the cord stored inside the basket on rear of chair.
Proper cord storage is essential in order to prevent damage. Should any cord or any electrical components have any signs
of damage, they should be immediately replaced to avoid the possibility of liquid penetration or exposure to current, which
can cause further damage to other components, caregivers, or patients.
13. This product is shipped with a 2 pin cord set for North America on a nominal 120 VAC circuit. The product will operate on
circuits from 120-240 VAC with a local country power cord equipped with an IEC plug into the controller. If the plug does not
fit into the outlet, contact a certified electrician to install the proper outlet. DO NOT MODIFY THE PLUG IN ANY WAY. No
adapter should be used with this product.
14. For an added level of safety; Winco recommends the use of a 120 volt GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) outlet.
15. Never insert pins or attach other metallic fasteners into or onto any part of this chair.
16. DO NOT use this product if the covering shows signs of deterioration, such as checking, blistering, or cracking.
17. KEEP DRY. DO NOT operate in a wet or moist condition or environment.
DO NOT crush or pinch wiring. Water ingress testing was NOT performed on this device. This
product should NOT be used in the presence of liquids. Refer to the cleaning instructions within
this manual.
ONLY Connect this product to a properly grounded outlet.

IMPORTANT: PLEASE READ
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL DIRECTIONS.
2. This is a clinical chair. It is used to safely and comfortably position an occupant for various treatment
procedures. Care should always be taken to assess an occupant's medical condition PRIOR to
use of chair and PRIOR to positioning an occupant in order to determine if this chair is medically
appropriate for a specific occupant's use
3. These chairs are NOT to be used in the presence of a flammable anesthetic mixture with air,
oxygen, or nitrous oxide.
4. STAY CLEAR of the lift and recline mechanisms.
5. DO NOT put hands, feet, or clothing into any openings when adjusting the arms and/or leg rests
on the chair. Attendant MUST confirm that occupant's arms, legs, hands, and feet are safe while
changing chair positions or SERIOUS INJURY MAY RESULT.
6. An occupant should NOT be transported with the arms in the "down position" and/or while the chair
is in the "lay-flat" position except in the event of an emergency.
7. LOCK casters at all times when chair is stationary AND when an occupant is in the chair. UNLOCK
casters ONLY when moving the chair.
8. ONLY transport occupants when the surface is in the LOWEST position.
9. Secure occupant with the lap belt at ALL TIMES.
10. DO NOT use recliner for transporting in or with ANY type of vehicle or trailer. Winco chairs have not
been tested or approved for use by an occupant in any type of vehicle or trailer.
11. NEVER sit on the chair arms or backrest. SERIOUS INJURY or damage may occur.
12. DO NOT stand on the foot rest.
13. Periodically check the tightness of all nuts, bolts, and screws during each annual inspection.
14. When the chair is not in use (not occupied), the lap belt MUST be stored in the latched position
across the seat or INJURY MAY OCCUR.
15. Any chair with malfunctioning controls, torn upholstery, or other mechanical or visible damage
should be immediately removed from service and repaired.
16. NEVER EXCEED the recommended weight capacity.
17. USE ONLY WINCO AUTHORIZED REPLACEMENT PARTS.

This chair is equipped with a total-lock braking system located at the rear base of the chair.
1. BRAKE MODE: Press down on the RED end of the lever (FIG. 1) to activate the total-lock mode.
When engaged, the total-lock position will prevent the casters from swiveling and spinning.
2. NEUTRAL MODE: Position the lever so that it is completely horizontal (as shown below - FIG. 1).
When engaged, the neutral position allows the casters to swivel and spin freely.
3. STEERING MODE: Press down on the GREEN end of the lever (FIG. 1) to activate the steering lock.
This mode secures both front wheels in the "steer lock" position and allows the rear wheels to
swivel and spin freely.

CASTER OPERATION: 3 MODES

The Stretchair® is equipped with swing-legs that are designed to elevate an occupant's legs to a
comfortable and/or prescribed position. Once one or both of the occupant's legs are elevated, they will
remain at a fixed angle.
Desired positioning of the legs can be achieved with four (4) length settings and infinite elevation
adjustments.
Swing-Legs are NOT adjustable in the lay-flat position.
1. The Stretchair® MUST BE in the upright position.
2. Depress the swing-leg release handle and adjust to desired elevation (FIG. 1).
• Foot rests can be pivoted to "cushion up" position for added occupant comfort or can be left in
"cushion down" position.
3. To adjust a foot rest to one of the four extended positions, push or pull on the foot rest while pulling
down on the spring plunger (FIG. 1).
4. Once the desired length is found, release the spring plunger and push or pull the foot rest to
ensure the foot rest has locked into position.
5. You can then use the handset control to adjust the chair angle for additional occupant comfort.

SWING-LEG ADJUSTMENTS

The Stretchair® arm rests are adjustable to enhance the
occupant's comfort while sitting (FIG. 3) and to act as guard-rails
while the chair is in the lay-flat position (FIG. 5).
DO NOT allow occupant to use the "stand-assist grips" or attempt
to exit the chair until the armrests have been adjusted to their
lowest position and the wheels have been locked.
1. Ensure that the occupant's arms are not resting on or directly
under the arm rest prior to adjustment.
2. Loosen both arm rest knobs for adjustment (FIG. 4).
3. Adjust the height of the arm rests to a desired height.
4. Tighten BOTH arm rest knobs while holding the arm rest in the
desired position.
• BOTH adjustment knobs must be tightened to remain
secure.
• Arm rests must be adjusted to their highest height
while the occupant is in the LAY-FLAT position (FIG. 5).
• Arm rests are NOT interchangeable.
