Maintenance

6.2 Inspecting the Chair

Have your service's equipment maintenance technicians
inspect the Chair regularly. Follow the checklist below and
operate the Chair through all its functions as described in
this manual.
If inspection shows damage or excessive wear, remove
the Chair from service until repair is made. See Parts and
Service, page 21.
IMPORTANT
Water under high pressure, or steam, can penetrate
joints, flush away lubricant, and cause corrosion. Use
caution when cleaning moving parts such as joints and
hinges, and reapply lubricant if needed (see right).
IMPORTANT
Using abrasive cleaning compounds or applicators
on the Chair can cause damage. Do not use abrasive
materials to clean the Chair.
