Thank you for deciding to purchase the Torbay Perching Stool from Aidapt. The Torbay

2. Before Installation
Please examine the item for any visible damage before use. If you see any damage or suspect
a fault, please do not use the product, but contact your supplier immediately for support.
Please dispose of all packaging carefully.
3. Height Adjustment
Remove the ‘E’ clip from the extension leg and extend all legs evenly to the desired
height ensuring you do not exceed the last punched hole of the extension leg. (see
fig. 1)
Once you have achieved the desired height; reinstall the ‘E’ clip, ensuring that it has
passed through the extension leg and is fitting neatly and snug around the outside
leg. (see fig. 2)
Note the perching stool is designed to slant to the front. Do not adjust
any of the legs to make the seat level as this will cause excessive stress
to the legs compromising user safety and possibly leading to
permanent damage of the perching stool, including fracture of the
tubular and other sections.)
4. Use of the Perching Stool
When moving always lift the perching stool by placing you hands on the tubular
metal frame beneath the seat.
Do not allow children or unauthorised persons to play with or use the
stool.
Do not rock back and forth or sideways when using the stool as this will
cause excessive stress and possible damage and failure which may
cause injury.
Do not use the perching outside the home or on uneven surfaces (such
as in the garden) as this will cause stress to the legs and possible
damage which may cause injury.
Do not place fingers or foreign objects into any of the exposed tubular
sections as this can lead to serious injury.
