Instructions for use
These instructions apply to product 201942314 Combi commode/shower chair, powered tilt
Overview and Use:
The Combi power tilt is a very versatile chair, suited for dependent individuals who require assistance with personal hygiene.
Manufactured entirely of rust-proof materials and components, the Combi power tilt includes 4 locking, plastic castors.
The chair can be used as a commode, a shower chair and a transport chair for indoor use. The Combi power tilt chair
features a backwards tilt of up to 25°, which facilitates perineal care and also transport of users who are unable to sit
comfortably in an upright position. The 5° forward tilt is especially helpful during transfer to and from the chair, whether
using manual methods or a mechanical lift.
The Combi power tilt chair features fold up armrests, useful for both caregiver and user during assisted transfers. The
polyurethane (PUR) seat, backrest, and armrests provide comfortable, anti-slip padding for the user.
Assembly
Frame Assembly - see figure 1:
Remove the snaplocks and mount the backrest into the
holes in the frame. Replace the snaplocks, ensuring they
are inserted correctly into the steel tube with both pins
correctly placed in the holes. It is possible, although not
necessary, to detach the backrest when the Combi chair is
used over a toilet.
Assembling the castors - see figure 2:
FRONT castors: Insert the inner-tube (castor) into the
chair leg, aligning the larger hole of the castor tube with the
hole in the leg tube. Insert the snaplock at the appropriate
height with the black part facing to the front.
REAR castors: Insert the inner-tube (castor) into the chair
leg, aligning the larger hole of the castor tube with the hole
in the leg tube. Insert the snaplock at the appropriate
height with the black part facing to the back.
To ensure proper alignment of the castors, the snaplock pin will not fit into the tubes if the holes are mis-aligned.
Figure 2
Figure 1

Bedpan / Bucket rails:
The bed pan / bucket rails can be used in combination with a keyhole (fig.3) or round shaped bucket (fig.4).
To assemble - see figure 6:
The two end pieces
(B, on the drawing) rest on the rear of the seat frame.
For keyhole shape bucket, insert the two front rods (A)
into the inner holes (C).
For all other bucket shapes use the outer holes (D).
If no bucket or bed pan is being used, the rails may be
detached so the chair fits easily over a toilet.
Individual Adjustment -see figure 7
Attachment of castors & frame height adjustment:
The pin on the snaplock clip narrows in width from the front towards the end. The hole in the tubing is bigger on one side
and narrower on the other side. This safety feature means that the snaplock clip can only be inserted in one way into the
tubing, ensuring the castors to be mounted correctly.
Front castor: insert snaplock clip into tube hole from rear of tubing so pin points frontwards.
Rear castor: insert snaplock clip into tube hole from rear of tubing so pin points backwards.
Height Adjustment:
By re-positioning the snaplocks on the chair legs, the Combi chair may be
adjusted to 6 different heights.
To adjust the height of the chair:
1. Remove snaplock
2. Select one of the 6 positions
3. Reinsert snaplock.
Repeat for all 4 legs.
IMPORTANT: Check that all four legs are the same height and that
all of the snaplocks are inserted correctly into the frame before use.

Tilting function:
The Combi power tilt chair can be tilted 5° forward and 25 ° backwards.
IMPORTANT: Before using the tilting function remember to lock all four castors.
The tilting function is operated by means of a battery operated actuator activated via a hand control on the pushbar.
While the backwards tilt may be operated with the chair empty, the forward tilt requires a counterweight to facilitate the
movement for the caregiver.
The caregiver may stand either behind or beside the chair to
operate the tilting mechanism. Press the “UP” arrow (a) to tilt the
chair backwards. Press the “DOWN” arrow (b) to tilt the chair
forwards. Stop the tilt mechanism at any angle by removing
your finger from the hand control button.
Charging the Battery:
The battery can be charged by plugging in the adaptor at 220V.
The plug needs to be inserted again after charging to prevent water leaking into the actuator.
Unplug the battery from the actuator (see figure 9 & 10)
Plug the battery in the adaptor and the adaptor in the socket (see figure 11 & 12).
After recharging, remove the adaptor and plug the battery in the actuator (figure 9).

After each use, or according to facility protocol, the Combi power tilt chair may be cleaned/disinfected with non-abra-
sive, non-corrosive solutions. The PUR seat and backrest can be detached for cleaning, as can the bucket / bedpan rails
(NOTE: the rear section of the bucket / bedpan holder must be lifted upwards before removing the two rods from the
holes). They can be washed up to 85 degrees Celsius / 3 minutes. Avoid harsh solvents and chlorine. If alcohol is used
to clean the black polyurethane, discolouration may occur. Ensure all parts are re-attached correctly prior to use.
