(effective 10/15/02)
If have an older bench that is not predrilled for
the posture system, you will have to drill those holes.
This requires a ruler, drill, 5/16" drill bit, and clamp.
Refer to figure 1 and prepare the older bench
as follows:
1. Remove the cushion from the bench. To do this,
remove the two screws on the underside of the
bench.
2. Center the block on the underside of the bench
and clamp in it place.
3. Use the four holes in the corners of the block as
guides to drill four 5/16" diameter holes in the bench.
4. Remove the block.
5. From the top of the bench (the side that the
cushion covers), hammer T nuts into the four holes.
The nuts must be flush and straight.
6. Reinstall the cushion.
INSTALLATION
This will require a phillips screw driver and a
7/16" wrench.
Refer to the figures 1 and 2 and attach the
posture system as follows:
1. Align the holes in the corners of the attachment
block with the holes on the underside of the bench.
2. Place a washer on each of the two shorter
screws. Use these to secure the shorter end of the
block.
3. Place a washer on each of the two longer screws.
Use these to secure the longer end of the block.
4. Turn the bench upright.
5. Install the knee stop into the end of the block that
has two slots. Slide the aluminum bar into the lower
slot and use a bent bolt to secure this in place.
