TILT-IN-SPACE GAS SPRING TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM:
If the chair actuates without squeezing the release
lever, the cable assembly needs to be adjusted.
CORRECTION:
1. Lean the chair on its side and remove clevis
pin and wire rue ring that secure the top of
the gas spring to the frame. Do not remove
the cable.
2. Loosen the nut above the gas spring bracket.
Rotate the gas spring out of the bracket
(counterclockwise) 1/2 turn. Retighten nut on
bracket, and reassemble the gas spring back
to the frame. Check that cable is snapped into
bracket (See fig. 14).
3. Test the operation of chair. If the chair still
actuates without squeezing release lever,
repeat the above procedure.

If the chair does not actuate with a person in the
chair while squeezing the release lever and
pushing on the back, then the cable is too loose
and the assembly needs to be adjusted.

bracket assembly. If cable is not engaged on
bracket, engage as shown in figure 15.
2. With a person in the chair, recheck cable.
If problem persists, go to step 3.
