Lid on tanning bed.............. - tanTALK

Sweetness · 06-22-2005, 01:48 PM

Won't stay down and it has new shocks? What is a girl to do? Yes, it is a home tanning unit, so please, don't say just. It all I can afford right now, but still do the HP at my salon. HELP>>>>>>

Canopy.

They need to be adjusted, if it has adjustments.

Sweetness · 06-22-2005, 02:00 PM

Ya, the canopy. How do you adjust them? Please.

They are probably upsidedown. The STEM should be facing up.

Sweetness · 06-22-2005, 02:09 PM

Anything is possible with me. I will check this out.

Thank you.

What bed is it?

Sweetness · 06-23-2005, 09:29 AM

Wolff Suntana! OK, Suntana!

Have a look at both ends where the are mounted. Is there a bracket with a series of holes that you can switch to? Or perhaps where the bottom is mounted there is a slot you can slide the cylinder in to change the mounting position? If not, you may not have the right shocks, too stiff.

Thanks Neon, you are a big help, I will check this out. Have a great day!

With that bed there may be a possibilty that you dont have the right shocks. Where did you get them? This may sound dumb but will work if the adjusting does not. The pistons have gas in them and you can sometimes find that if you wear them in by releasing some of the gas they will be fine. Just open and shut it a actually about 50 times or more and this will release some of the gas and brake them in.

The fat part of your piston should be connected to the top canopy part and the silver stem should be down and yes as Neon said also see if you can adjust the shock but on an old wolfe suntana this may not have the option to do that I believe there is one whole on top and bottom.

If none of this works you may actually have the wrong shock that unit has a very heavy canopy and needs strong pistons.

Try to wear them in.
