Fixing feet are set at the same height.
•Position the product exactly where required, and ensuring it is not moved,
mark out the 3 hole positions for each of the Floor Fixing Feet.
•Remove the product and using a drill bit of the type and size appropriate to
the underlying floor material and whether plastic inserts are required. Drill
each hole to the depth necessary dependent upon the use of plastic inserts
and type of screws to be used. - If in doubt seek advice from professionals
•Remove any debris, and if required fit plastic inserts ensuring they are flush to
the surface.
•Using screws of the appropriate type and size, secure the product to the floor
ensuring screws are fitted to all of the 12 holes in the Floor Fixing Feet.
4. Correct Use
Adjustable Height:
•Remove the pin clips from the legs.
•Select the desired height of the frame by gently sliding out each extension leg from
the frame - NOTE this is a telescopic action.
•When desired height is obtained refit the pin clips into the appropriate hole
ensuring pin clips goes through each leg and its extension leg and that all legs are
set to the same height.
•The frame is now ready for use.
5. Cleaning
•Use mild detergent with warm water to wipe down framework on at least a weekly
basis more frequently if required.
•Do not use an abrasive cleaner as this will damage the frame and nullify your
warranty.
•Pay particular attention to the hinges and abutments.
Use of power/jet washing & industrial washing machines:
•If either of the above is used to clean equipment care must be taken since high-pressure water can be
penetrative.
•Care should be taken that frames are not placed too close to high-pressure water jets.
•After cleaning ensure any residual water is removed from the framework as it could cause permanent
rusting of the frame (leave frames open in a warm environment for several hours to ensure all internal
moisture evaporates).
•We cannot offer advice on industrial washing machines with regards to specific machine settings, as
these will be dependant on the manufacturer’s instructions.
6. Maintenance Requirements
The product should be checked on a regular basis for damage or wear and tear – this includes flaking or cracking
paint. Any undue signs of damage should be noted and reported to the supplier in the first instance. Should
damage be evident, then the user should refrain from using the product until advice has been sought from the
