Swing Away - Flip Back Armrest
(YG Series)

Using the Swing Away - Flip Back Armrest

To flip back the armrest, raise the front of the armrest
and rotate it straight back as far as possible. Reverse
this procedure to return the armrest to its original
position. See Figure 46.
To swing away the armrest, lightly lift up on the
armrest and rotate the armrest away from the chair.
See Figure 46. To replace the armrest, swing it back
towards the chair and gently push it back down into
place.
Note: The swing away armrests pivot on nylon
sleeves located inside the armrest receptacle. If the
armrest does not rotate properly, check the sleeves
for wear.

Adjusting Armrest Height

Tools Needed:
• 2 Flat Head Screwdrivers
1. Remove both armrest pins from the armrest upright.
See Figure 47.
2. Reassemble the armrest pins in the desired location
on the armrest upright (in 1/2" increments).
3. Securely tighten both armrest pins in the new
location.
WARNING
The threads on the armrest pins in the armrest uprights
have been treated with a medium strength threadlock to
reduce the possibility that they will become loose. You
should be able to adjust the height of the Swing Away -
Flip Back Armrest two or three times without reapplying
threadlock to these screws. If you repeatedly adjust the
armrest height, TiLite requires that you reapply medium
strength threadlock after every second adjustment.

Adjusting Armrest Angle

Tools Needed:
• 5/32" Allen Wrench
1. To adjust the angle at which the armrest sits when in
the down position, loosen, but do not remove, the
Allen Screw that secures the armrest stop clamp.
See Figure 48.
