Fitting and Height Adjustment
1. Identify the correct height and position for the
seat within the shower. IMPORTANT; When
choosing the position, check there are no
concealed electrical cables or pipe work near
to where the fixing holes are to be drilled.
2. Using the e-clips and external leg holes, adjust
the leg extension tubes to the correct height
for the client. For finer adjustment the legs
may be adjusted individually by unscrewing
the threaded feet and locking into position by
tightening the nut
3. With the seat in the down position, 90 degrees
to the wall, and the legs vertical, with the feet
flat and secure to the shower base, mark the
fixing hole positions for the wall mounting
bracket on the wall.
4. Using appropriate, non rusting screws and
fixings, secure the mounting bracket to the
wall.
5. Check the seat can be raised and lowered
without interference, and that the feet are
securely in contact with the shower base.
6. Check seat is firm and secure.

against the wall.
