INSTALLING THE NEW BACKREST
1. Place the new backrest into position, face-down on the chair base.
2. From the outside of one of the side panels, insert the hinge pin through the hole, just until it is visible on the inside of the side panel.
3. Place the two spacers into position on the inside of the side panel, with the smaller spacer between the larger spacer and the side panel, then push the
hinge pin through both spacers (Fig.7).
4. Use your fingers to line up the bracket in the side of the backrest and the hinge pin; you will need to pull up slightly on the lower part of the backrest to
properly align the hinge pin with the bracket. (NOTE: Use your fingers to locate the circular bracket in the side of the backrest before attempting to
insert the hinge pin into the backrest. You can easily locate the hole by pushing firmly inward on the side of the backrest until you feel the metal bracket
beneath the upholstery.)
5. Insert the hinge pin as far into the bracket as possible, then use a small hammer to install it completely into the bracket.
6. Insert the cotter pin into the hinge pin, then use a needle-nosed pliers to bend the ends back.
7. Replace the side panel by aligning the plugs on the inside of the cover with the corresponding holes on the chair, then pushing the cover firmly
into place (Fig.8).
