Ulti-Mate Air Back
NOTE: The standard attachment points are where the
eyelets are located in the upholstery.
1. If there are no eyelets, pierce a hole pattern in the
fabric, that resembles the pattern found on the neck
support bracket. Ensure the pattern is aligned with
the T-nutted holes found on the back shell.
NOTE: The cover may need to be removed to get a
more precise location of the T-nutted holes before pierc-
ing the hole pattern in the fabric.
NOTE: There is an extra set of T-nutted holes found on
the back shell for optional height adjustment. To make
these holes accessable, pierce a hole in the fabric aligned
with the T-nutted hole in the back shell. Repeat for oppo-
site hole.
NOTE: If a NEW neck support is used on an EXISTING
Curved Back than the adapter plate and support bracket
MUST be used.
NOTE: If a NEW neck support is used on a NEW Curved
Back than the support bracket can be used WITHOUT
the adapter plate.

four (4) long mounting screws provided.
