Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Remove the old, worn-out cords from your lounge chair. This may involve cutting them or untying them from the frame.
- Thread the new cords through the designated holes or channels in the chair fabric and frame. Use the molded metal ends to guide the cord.
- Start with the longer 2.0m cords for the leg rest section and the shorter 1.3m cords for the backrest section. Ensure you are feeding them through the correct corresponding channels.
- Once threaded, pull the cords taut. You may need to use a tool or significant hand strength to achieve the desired tension. The metal ends can be helpful for grip.
- Secure the ends of the cords, typically by tucking them back through the grommets or tying them off according to your chair's original design. Ensure the tension is even across the chair for stability.
Compatibility:
This kit is designed to be universal for most strung lounge chairs, including standard and XL sizes. It is confirmed to be compatible with brands such as Faulkner, Lafuma, Caravan Sports, XtremepowerUS, and BestChoiceproducts. However, it is crucial to measure your existing cords and the chair's dimensions to ensure the provided 2.0m and 1.3m lengths are appropriate before purchase.
Care:
- Clean the cords periodically with a damp cloth to remove dirt and grime. Avoid harsh chemicals that could degrade the rope.
- Store the cords in a dry place when not in use to prolong their lifespan.
- Regularly check the tension of the cords and re-tighten if necessary to maintain optimal chair support.
