What to do if knee lifting linkages bind against grid deck in Lumex Patriot Homecare Bed?
If the knee lifting linkages bind against the grid deck, preventing the knee deck from elevating in your Lumex Indoor Furnishing, it's likely that the motor is installed backward. This causes the knee to elevate too high, resulting in the linkage binding. To resolve this, remove the motor and reverse it.
Why head operates with knee control button in Lumex Patriot Homecare Bed?
If the head operates with the knee control button and the knee operates with the head control button in your Lumex Indoor Furnishing, the motor is likely installed backward. To fix this, remove the motor and reverse its installation.
