Tilting Function (Accessory) - Thomashilfen Hercules XL Gebrauchsanweisung

CAUTION: Using the cushion may increase the overall height of the Hercules XL.
Before driving, check that there is still enough room to cover the car's roof. A dis-
tance of approx. 20 cm / 7.9" between the top edge of the positioning seat and the
car headliner is recommended.
Tilting function (accessory) (item code 402 / 403)
The tilting function allows Hercules XL to be tilted backwards in 2.5°-steps. To set the
desired tilt, loosen the two screws located in the upright rows of holes. Change the
tilt and fix the tilt plate back in place with the screws. (fig. 17)
The tilting function is available in two versions: 0° to 10° and 10° to 20°.
If the tilting function is retrofitted, three mounting kits are included. (fig. 18) The
necessary assembly must be carried out by a trained and qualified person!
• "Mounting kit A" is required if the seat was previously equipped WITHOUT a tilt
function.
• "Mounting kit B" is required if the seat was previously equipped with a swivel
function.
• "Mounting kit C" is ALWAYS required.
You can put aside the unused mounting kit ("A" or "B").

Headrest (accessory) (item code 404)
ASSEMBLY TIP: To attach the headrest, hold the upholstery slot open with a spacer.
(fig. 19)
When mounting the headrest, the threaded rod must be at the bottom. (fig. x)
To adjust the headrest, loosen the screw that holds the headrest. Then the height of
the headrest is adjusted to the user and tightened again. (fig. 20) Make sure that the
back of the user's head is centred in the headrest.
The headrest is attached to a ball joint. The headrest can be finely adjusted by loos-
ening the screws under the upholstery. The headrest must be removed for this.
