WARNING
Fasteners
Many of the screws and bolts on
this chair are special high-strength
fasteners and may have special
coatings.
Many nuts are of the Nyloc type.
Nylocs are single use fasteners and
must be replaced when removed.
They have a plastic insert to help
prevent loosening.
Only use screws, bolts and nuts
provided by Sunrise.
1. Use of improper fasteners may
cause the chair to fail.
2. Over or under-tightened fasteners
may fail or cause damage to chair
parts.

tighten them as soon as you can.
Loose bolts or screws can cause
damage to other chair parts causing
them to fail.
