REPLACING THE SEAT CUSHION
It is imperative that Human Touch® products are repaired in a manner that ensures product safety and regulatory compliance and that is fully consistent with the practices used
during the manufacturing process. Therefore, Human Touch requires that all product repairs are performed using only factory-new parts and in accordance with these repair
instructions. Failure to adhere to these instructions voids the product warranty and releases Human Touch from all liability for injury or product damage resulting from the repair.
Tools Required: Phillips-head screwdriver, small flat-head screwdriver, 16mm open wrench or socket wrench, two people.
NOTE: SAVE ALL REMOVED PARTS FOR USE DURING REASSEMBLY
