Need to install a Stealth or Whitmyer head pad on Seating Dynamics Dynamic Head Support Hardware? In this Tech Tip, JJ demonstrates how to install the appropriate Seating Dynamics pad adapter onto both Stealth 3-hole/4-hole pad mounts and Whitmyer half-ball or half-moon style head pads.

Watch the video for step-by-step guidance on aligning and securing the pad adapter, then attaching the prepared head pad to the Dynamic Single Axis Head Support.

Installing the Pad Adapter on a Stealth Head Pad

1. Prepare the head pad.

Remove any mounting hardware that is not permanently attached to the Stealth head pad, leaving the 3-hole/4-hole mounting pattern accessible.

2. Position the Seating Dynamics pad adapter.

Place the pad adapter against the mounting surface and align it with the existing holes.

3. Rotate the adapter if needed.

If the holes do not line up initially, rotate the pad adapter until the mounting holes are correctly aligned.

4. Secure the adapter.

Install the screws through the appropriate holes and tighten them securely.

5. Check the installation.

Confirm that the adapter is firmly attached. The head pad is now ready to be installed onto the Seating Dynamics Dynamic Head Support.

Installing the Pad Adapter on a Whitmyer Head Pad

1. Prepare the Whitmyer head pad.

Remove all removable mounting components so the pad's mounting surface is accessible.

2. Position the Whitmyer pad adapter.

Place the Seating Dynamics pad adapter against the flat mounting surface of the head pad.

3. Insert the mounting bolts.

Insert the bolts from the underside of the pad mounting surface and through the pad adapter.

4. Install the nuts.

Attach an M6 nut to each bolt. Repeat the process for the second mounting hole.

5. Tighten the hardware.

Make sure the nuts are captured within the mounting channel, then use a 5 mm wrench to tighten the hardware securely.

6. Verify the adapter installation.

Confirm that the bolts, nuts, and adapter are secure before attaching the pad to the Dynamic Head Support.

Attaching the Pad to the Dynamic Single Axis Head Support

1. Prepare the Dynamic Single Axis Head Support so the flat mounting plate and clamp ring are accessible.

2. Position the installed pad adapter directly against the flat plate.

3. Align the pad adapter with the clamp ring mounting holes.

4. Insert the 5 mm Allen screws through the clamp ring and into the pad adapter.

5. Tighten each screw securely, repeating the process for all three mounting points.

6. Double-check all hardware to confirm the head pad and adapter are securely installed before use.
