Design and Function

Intended Use
The UniLink Single Point Adjustment Adapter is indicated for users of UniLink Headrest Hardware who require an easily accessible single adjustment point for their headrest pad. It adapts a four-hole 17mm ball mount into a single- fastener, easily accessible 17mm ball mount designed to easily adjust the positioning of a headrest pad. Using one adjustment point, a technician or attendant can adjust the position of a user’s headrest pad to better fit the user’s head, providing increased comfort, neutral positioning, and improved pressure distribution. It is designed to be integrated with any UniLink headrest hardware and compatible 17mm pads, ranging from pediatric to adult sizes. It is available in various styles which may be matched to a user’s specific needs by an appropriately qualified healthcare provider.

Compatible with all UniLink headrest hardware including fixed, flip-down and Ultra.
Compatible with all metric headrest pads with a 17mm ball attachment point.
Allows the adjustment of a headrest pad with a single fastener.
Adjustment point is easily accessible regardless of the position of the headrest pad or hardware.

Tools needed

	Description	Qty
A	Adapter Mount, Ball, 17mm	1
B	M8 x 1.25 x 12MM SSFP Set Screw	1
C	Oil Resistant O-Ring	1
D	Clamp, Mount, Ball, 17mm*	1
E	M5 x 0.8 x 16MM Socket Head Screw	4

The concave end of the clamp is installed facing the 17mm ball.

Adjusting the Headrest

Using the M4 hex wrench, loosen the M8 set screw (B) on the top (or the bottom depending on installation) of the Single Point Adjustment Adapter.
Adjust the headrest to the new angle for the user.*
Tighten the M8 set screw (B) to secure the headrest in the new position.

if adjustments to height or depth are made using the links in the headrest hardware, the headrest adapter may have to be adjusted again to reposition and accommodate those changes.

Installation Plan

Set up an installation plan before mounting the Single Point Adjustment Adapter to the headrest. After installation, ensure that the Single Point Adjustment Adapter is mounted properly and that all screws are tightened evenly.

Attaching the Headrest Pad

Attach the Single Point Adjustment Adapter to the headrest pad prior to securing it to the headrest hardware.

Align the four mounting holes in the adapter mount (A) with the four threaded holes in the headrest pad.
Insert the four M5 x 0.8 x 16mm socket head screws (E) through the holes in the adapter mount (A) and into the threads of the headrest pad. Tighten the screws until they are snug.

Installation Instructions

Attaching to the Headrest Hardware

Once the Single Point Adjustment Adapter has been attached to the headrest pad it may be installed on the headrest hardware.

Loosen the M8 set screw (B), if necessary, to allow room for the 17mm ball to fit inside the socket of the adapter mount (A) between the base and the clamp (D).
Place the socket of the adapter mount (A) onto the 17mm ball of the headrest hardware. Ensure the ball is seated in the concave surface of the bottom of the clamp (D) as shown below.

CAUTION
It is imperative that the 17mm ball is seated properly in clamp (D) while tightening. If the ball slips forward in the socket it will not seat properly with clamp (D). This can lead to gradual, or sudden, loosening of the adapter, loss of positioning, and discomfort for the user.

Tighten the M8 set screw (B) until the clamp (D) seats the 17mm ball into the bottom of the adapter mount (A).

First Time Use

Dealer Assistance

During first-time use by the user, it is advised that the dealer or service technician not only assembles the product, but also explains the configuration of user positioning to the user (i.e., the user and or the attendant). If needed, the dealer can make final adjustments.

User Testing

It is important that the customer is fully aware of the installation of the Single Point Adjustment Adapter, how to use it, and how it can be adjusted to fit the client comfortably. As a dealer, proceed as follows:

Have the user test the position of the Single Point Adjustment Adapter.
Is the hardware in the proper position for the client?
Can all controls be operated safely and with minimal effort?
If needed, make any adjustments to the positioning.

Conditions of Use

The Single Point Adjustment Adapter is intended for use as installed by the dealer, in accordance to the installation instructions in this manual.
