4.4 Maintaining the Seat and the Seat Belt
Background
In order for the seat and seat belt to operate safely and properly over
a long period of time, periodic maintenance and occasional repairs
are necessary. Poorly maintained equipment can become a safety
hazard!
Maintaining the seat and seat belt
• Keep the seat clean. Dirt, dust, or harsh chemicals can damage
the upholstery. Repair holes or tears immediately.
• If necessary, clean the seat belt with a mild soap solution. Do not
use chemical cleaners, as they will damage the fabric.
• Periodically test the operation of the seat tension knob and the
front-to-back lever. Repair or replace worn or malfunctioning
components.
• If the seat does not move smoothly during adjustment, apply a
small amount of standard bearing grease (such as Shell Alvania
®
RL2 or equivalent) to the rails.
