5. Operation
The Okin JLDQ.11.156.333D power recliner motor operates in conjunction with your recliner's hand control. Pressing the appropriate buttons on the hand control will extend or retract the motor's stroke, allowing the recliner to move into various positions. The motor has an operation frequency of 1 minute ON / 8 minutes OFF, indicating its duty cycle for continuous use.
