Operate / Adjust

Dual-Articulating Headrest The dual-articulating headrest includes several adjustment features that improve your access to the oral cavity and increase patient comfort. Use the glide bar to accommodate a variety of patient heights. Simply pull up or push down on the headrest until it is in the desired position. The gliding headrest cushion provides additional height adjustment. WARNING If the glide bar has exceeded its maximum recommended working height, a warning line will be visible on the patient’s side of the glide bar. Do not use the headrest in a position where this warning line is visible. Glide Bar Locking Knob

The locking knob allows you to easily adjust the headrest for a full range of positions. Release the headrest by turning the locking knob counterclockwise, then adjust the headrest for a proper fit. Lock the headrest in the desired position by turning the knob clockwise.

Headrest Glide Bar Tension If the headrest drifts downward, or if it is difficult to move up or down, the glide bar tension needs adjustment. To adjust the tension, use a 1/8'' hex key. Turn the tension adjustment screw clockwise to increase friction or counterclockwise to decrease friction. 1/8" Hex Key

Headrest Position for Wheelchairs To position the headrest for wheelchairs: 1. Remove the headrest from the dental chair. 2. Rotate the headrest 180° and slide the glide bar into the backrest until it stops. 3. Swivel the dental chair, if necessary, and position the backrest to its full upright position. 4. Position the wheelchair and the dental chair back to back. 5. Move the dental chair up or down, as needed, to adjust the headrest height. 6. Lock the wheelchair wheels.

Patient Positioning To properly seat patients in the chair, ask the patient to sit as far back in the seat pocket as possible. This ensures the best alignment with the lumbar support and headrest. For optimal comfort, patients should place their forearms on the armrests or keep their arms comfortably folded on their lap. WARNING Do not allow patients to drop their arms behind the armrests or under the backrest during chair movement.

Clean / Maintain

Clean / Maintain Barrier Protection A-dec recommends barrier protection for all applicable touch and transfer surfaces. Touch surfaces are areas that come into contact with hands and become potential cross-contamination points during dental procedures. Transfer surfaces are areas that come into contact with instruments and other inanimate objects. In the USA, barriers must be produced under the Current Good Manufacturing Practice (CGMP) as specified by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (USFDA). For regions outside the USA, refer to the medical device regulations specific to your location.

NOTE For proper use and disposal of barriers, see the instructions provided by the barrier manufacturer.

IMPORTANT For recommendations on cleaning and chemical disinfection of touch and transfer surfaces (where barrier protection is not applicable or when barriers are compromised), please see the A-dec Equipment Asepsis Guide (p/n 85.0696.00).

Upholstery CAUTION Do not use household bleach (sodium hypochlorite) or other products containing chlorine, isopropyl alcohol (greater than 25 percent by volume), or hydrogen peroxide to clean or disinfect the upholstery. It can cause rapid deterioration and damage the product.

To preserve the quality of your A-dec upholstery, use barrier covers instead of relying on chemicals. Barriers significantly extend the life of the upholstery and will help to preserve its luxurious look and soft feel. To clean the upholstery, use a solution of mild detergent and water. Use surface disinfectants only when the barriers have been compromised or there is visible spatter on the upholstery. See the A-dec Equipment Asepsis Guide for more information.

10

Utilities The utilities for A-dec chair-mounted delivery systems are located in the contoured floor box under your chair. To maintain these utilities, see your system Instructions for Use. If you have a chair-only configuration, you may still have a floor box that hides the power cord and outlet. For access, lift the cover up and off the floor box frame. CAUTION When removing or replacing covers, take care not to damage any wiring or tubing. Verify that the covers are secure after replacing them.
