STEP 12: Properly Position the Hand Usually, the lowest bony area will be the ischial tuberosity or 'sit bones'. If you are not sure, lift the person's leg slightly and you should feel the bony area move in your hand.
STEP 13: Begin Releasing Air Rotate valve counter clockwise to begin letting out air, while keeping your hand under the person's sitting bones.
STEP 14: Cushion Lowers Allow cushion to lower until you can barely move your finger tips (approx. ½ inch or 1.25cm)

STEP 15: Close Valve Rotate valve clockwise to close.
STEP 16: Check Cushion Height Wiggle fingers to make sure there is approximately ½ inch of air between person and bottom.
Caution: Avoid 'bottoming out'. The cushion is most effective when there is air between all parts of the person and the chair. If the person has bottomed out, please add air and repeat the process.
CONGRATULATIONS! You have now completed the adjustment process. Please be sure to check the cushion daily to ensure that you have not 'bottomed out', and to assure the cushion is properly adjusted. If you have additional questions, please feel free to call our Customer Service Department at 800-851-3449 or 618-277-9173. Thanks.
