How To Replace an Electric Recliner Actuator Bolt
Replacing this actuator mounting bolt is a simple DIY task, but always take care when working with heavy furniture and moving mechanical parts. Follow the steps below to safely remove the old bolt and install the new one.
1. Turn Off the Power
Before starting any work, switch off the recliner at the wall and unplug the power supply. This ensures the actuator cannot move unexpectedly while you are working on it.
2. Position the Recliner Safely
Carefully tip the recliner onto its side so you can access the mechanism. Recliners can be heavy, so use proper lifting techniques such as bending your knees, keeping your back straight and lifting with your legs. Ask for assistance if required to avoid injury.
3. Take a Before Photo
Use your phone to take a clear photo of the original bolt location and orientation. This makes it easy to reinstall the new bolt in the correct position and ensures nothing is overlooked during reassembly.
4. Locate the Actuator Slider Block
Identify the actuator’s moving slider block where it attaches to the mechanism’s drive link brackets. The M10 internal hex bolt fastens directly through this point to secure the actuator.
5. Remove the Existing Bolt
Use an 8mm Allen key to loosen and remove the old bolt. If it is stripped, bent or partially sheared, take your time and work carefully to avoid damaging the mounting point threads.
6. Install the New M10 Socket Cap Bolt
Insert the new bolt through the slider block into the drive link bracket. Tighten firmly with the 8mm Allen key, ensuring the bolt is snug but not overtightened. Check that the actuator moves freely and the bolt head does not interfere with any surrounding parts.
7. Restore Power and Test
Return the recliner to its upright position, plug the power supply back in and test the recliner’s movement. Confirm that the actuator operates smoothly and the bolt remains securely seated.
