B. JAY FIT 2U HD (Two Point) Hardware
Please read the following instructions before beginning. To mount the JAY FIT 2U back, with
2-point hardware, it is best to begin without a user in the wheelchair. Once the back has been
mounted the user can be seated back in the wheelchair for minor adjustments. This is only
available as a spare part.
Tools required (included with the JAY FIT 2U Back)
1.
4mm Hex Key
2.
10mm Box End Wrench
Back Hardware Mounting
1.
Remove existing back components
a.
Remove the existing wheelchair back according to the wheelchair manufacturer's
instructions.
b.
Remove any pre-existing back hardware or components.
2.
Locating the hardware receivers
a.
The back shell should come with mounting brackets (A) attached.
b.
Visually determine the optimum clamp receiver location (B) on the back canes. The
mounting hardware should be at approximately equal heights on each back post (C),
and parallel to the seat frame (Fig. 6).
NOTE: A higher location on the back canes is generally better.
3.
Attaching the hardware receivers
a.
Using the 4mm hex key, loosen the clamp screws (D).
NOTE: For large tube diameters, the clamp screws may have to be removed
completely.
b.
Attach and align the receiver to the wheelchair back canes (E).
c.
Hand tighten the clamp screws (D).
d.
The receivers may require additional lateral adjustments to ensure proper alignment.
4.
Attaching and aligning the JAY FIT 2U Back shell
a.
Using a 10mm wrench, loosen the bracket nuts (F) and mounting pin bolts (J) until the
hardware can move easily in all directions.
b.
Attach the JAY FIT 2U Back to the hardware receivers by inserting left and right
mounting pins (G) in the left and right receivers (H).
c.
Locate the back to the approximate location, relative to both the chair and the user.
d.
Tighten bolts (L) on the inside of the mounting pin (G). The recommended torque
specifi cation is 11.3-12.4 Nm [100-110 in-lbs].
e.
Once all components have been properly aligned, tighten the clamp screws (D) to
approximately 8.5-9.6 Nm [75-85 in-lbs].
f.
Test the back release by pressing the release levers (I) forward and removing the back
off of the chair. Proper alignment of the mounting hardware and back is correct when
it is possible to have a smooth attachment and release of the back assembly. If proper
alignment has not been
achieved, adjust the components until properly aligned.
f.
Finish by inserting the locking pin (K) into the receiver.
NOTE – Back depth and angle may require additional adjustment to ensure proper fi t to the user.
