Shower Safety
Your FAWSsit™ portable shower safety is important to
us. Please read and follow safety instructions below:
• Plug the GFI pluginto a grounded 3-prong
outlet only. (Fig. 1)
• Do not remove ground prong.
• Do not use an adapter.
• Use 3 wire extension cords if necessary.
• Unplug unit before doing any servicing.
• Remember that disposal water is not sanitary.
Place the water disposal tube directly into drain,
and sanitize disposal area after use. (Fig. 2)
• Make sure space is big enough for care attendant to
move around the outside of the shower.

Operating Instructions and Set Up for Models
S2000, SS4040, B5000, and T4000
Your FAWSsit™ portable wheelchair shower comes packaged fully assembled
and ready for use. No tools are required. Your FAWSsit™ portable shower sets
up in less than 5 minutes and weighs less than 30 pounds. e best location
may be the kitchen of your home or in an area where both hot and cold water
resources are available as well as a drain for removing the waste water.
Plan for open space around all sides of the shower to ensure easy patient access
for family members or care attendants.
After unpacking your FAWSsit™ portable shower, stand
the unit upright on its support legs. e white rubber
protection feet on each of the support legs should be on
the oor. (Fig. 3)

Operating Instructions & Setup continued
Pull the right shower wall toward you until it opens to a
90 degree angle (Fig.4) Do the same with the left shower
wall until it opens to a 90 degree angle as well (Fig.5).
Your portable wheelchair shower should now be set up
in a horseshoe conguration with the dark blue shower
pan facing you.
Your portable wheelchair shower comes with a dark blue
vinyl water collection pan that is attached to the rear
wall of your portable shower. A Velcro® strip is wrapped
around the upper rear tubing arm for shipping / storage.
By pulling up on the Velcro® strip, the blue vinyl water
collection pan releases to lay at on the oor between the
rear, left and right shower walls. (Fig.6a & 6b)
Attach the Velcro strips to the lower support tubing on
the sides of the shower to hold the pan edges upright.
Leave the front open until after the person in the
wheelchair is rolled in.
e back of the shower should face your hot/cold water
outlets. A exible water hose for bathing will be attached
to the water faucet later during this setup process
(included in your kit). A drain source for bath water
removal should also be available, as in your kitchen sink.
Your portable wheelchair shower comes with a support
arm that is attached to the right shower wall. Make sure
that the support arm on the right side of your portable
wheelchair shower is lowered to attach to the left shower
wall for additional support after the wheelchair is inside
the shower stall. In its lowered position, the support arm
sits approximately 6 inches o the oor aligned with the
support rails for the left and right side walls as well as
the back shower wall.

Operating Instructions & Setup continued
Note: Do not lower the support arm or attach the front
water collection pan to the support arm until the
wheelchair and person are completely inside the shower
(Fig. 7 & 8).
Additional Velcro® strips are evenly spaced along the blue
vinyl water collection pan. ese Velcro® strips wrap around
the lower support tubing arms located approximately 6
inches o the oor (Fig. 8). Once these Velcro strips are
attached, the water collection pan forms a closed in area
for the person and wheelchair. Your water collection pan
is designed to be raised slightly in front to allow for bath
water to ow to the rear of the collection pan for easier
removal by your FAWSsit™ shower’s water pump.
ere is an quick connect shower hose with a ow control
shower head available for the FAWSsit™ portable showers
(Fig. 9). is shower hose has a snap-on attachment for
the sink faucet, our standard 15 foot long hose, and a
shower head which has an adjustment lever which allows
for water to be turned on or o at the shower head as well
as at the faucet. ere are also special water ow options
on this shower head. If longer hoses are required, there
are 20 foot, 25 foot, or 30 foot sprayer and exit hoses
available. – For attaching the shower sprayer to the sink
faucet, see Page 9, “Faucet Aerator Installation and Use.”
Your FAWSsit™ portable shower’s water pump is attached to
the rear wall on the right side of your shower approximately
26 inches o the ground. e spun aluminum cap with o/
on switch for your water pump is located on the top side of
your water pump.
Note: By pushing the switch to the up position, the water
pump will activate. By pushing down on the switch the water
pump will shut off. (Fig. 10)
