Frequently asked questions
What is a recliner parachute pull cable?
It is a D-shaped pull handle connected to a cable that releases a compatible manual recliner mechanism.
Does the handle come with the cable?
Yes. Each option includes the pull handle and cable as one assembly.
How do I choose between 79 mm and 123 mm?
Measure the exposed inner cable from the sheath clip to the end of the S-hook and choose the closest matching standard option.
What is the difference between standard and long-neck options?
The long-neck versions use a different handle-neck and mounting-block configuration. Compare the complete original handle shape as well as the exposed cable length.
Will this fit every manual recliner?
No. Universal fit requires a matching D-style handle, exposed cable length, sheath, clip, hook and mounting arrangement.
Does a recliner that will not open always need a new cable?
No. A broken or frayed cable is one possible cause, but the handle, release mechanism or other linkage can also be faulty. Inspect the assembly before ordering.
What should I send CouchGuard for help?
Send clear photos of the handle, mounting block, sheath clip, S-hook and exposed-length measurement.
