Conclusion

To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order.

PLEASE REMEMBER THE FOLLOWING DURING REASSEMBLY:

- When gluing the foam to the plastic DON'T over do it , just spray for a second on the desired area and press foam onto glue.

- When Gluing the foam be sure your edges are smooth and everything is secured , other wise you will get bumps in the leather .

- There will be wrinkles on the leather when its re stretched , this is normal . They usually dissipate over time.

- If the Bolts from step 2 will not go on use a utility knife and cut X shaped holes on the leather until you can physically see the thread .

- When attaching the 3 wires and 1 hose from step 3 BE SURE these are not getting pinched between the upper and lower portion. Otherwise you will get no air to the feet area.

Good Luck .
