5. Installation

The Okin JLDQ.12.134.329Q motor is designed for straightforward replacement. However, it is critical to ensure compatibility with your existing furniture frame and electrical system.

Compatibility Check:

• Verify that your current motor's brand and model number match or are listed as compatible with JLDQ.12.134.329Q (e.g., JLDQ.12.134.329D/E/G/J/K/L/P/Q/Z).
• Confirm that the minimum installation dimension (134 mm), maximum installation dimension (463 mm), and stroke (329 mm) are suitable for your furniture's frame.
• Ensure the plug types (5-pin for switch, 2-pin square for power, 2-pin socket for slaved motor) match your existing wiring.

General Installation Steps (Consult furniture-specific instructions for details):

1. Disconnect Power: Always unplug the furniture from the power outlet before beginning any installation or replacement.
2. Remove Old Motor: Carefully detach the old motor from the furniture frame. Note the orientation and connection points.
3. Disconnect Wiring: Unplug all connectors from the old motor.
4. Install New Motor: Secure the new Okin JLDQ.12.134.329Q motor to the furniture frame using the appropriate hardware.
5. Connect Wiring: Connect the 5-pin plug to the hand control, the 2-pin square plug to the power supply, and the 2-pin socket to the slaved motor if present. Ensure all connections are secure.
6. Test Functionality: Plug the furniture back into the power outlet and test the motor's operation using the hand control.

6. Operation

Once installed, the Okin JLDQ.12.134.329Q motor operates in conjunction with your furniture's hand control unit. The motor provides linear actuation to adjust the position of your recliner, lift chair, or bed.

• Use the buttons on your hand control to extend or retract the actuator, thereby adjusting the furniture's position.
• Observe the recommended operation frequency of 1 minute ON / 8 minutes OFF to ensure motor longevity and prevent overheating.

7. Maintenance

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and reliable performance of your Okin motor actuator.

• Cleaning: Wipe the motor and its components clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
• Inspection: Periodically inspect the motor and all connections for any signs of wear, damage, or loose wiring.
• Lubrication: The motor is generally maintenance-free regarding internal lubrication. Do not attempt to lubricate internal components unless specifically instructed by the manufacturer.

8. Troubleshooting

If your recliner or lift chair is not functioning correctly, perform the following basic troubleshooting steps:

• Check Power Supply: Ensure the furniture is securely plugged into a working electrical outlet. Test the outlet with another device.
• Inspect Hand Control: Verify that the hand control switch is functioning. Sometimes, the issue may lie with the control unit rather than the motor.
• Examine Connections: Check all motor connections (5-pin, 2-pin square, 2-pin socket) to ensure they are firmly seated and not damaged.
• Motor Compatibility: Double-check that the installed motor is the correct model and compatible with your furniture's frame and electrical system.
• Overload Protection: If the motor was recently used for an extended period, it might have entered a thermal protection mode. Allow it to cool down for at least 8 minutes before attempting operation again.

If the problem persists after performing these checks, it is recommended to consult a qualified technician or contact Okin customer support for further assistance.
