ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
!ATTENTION: PLEASE READ!
Please see LIMITED WARRANTY of these instructions. If the warranty is not acceptable, contact Nuprodx, Inc. for information about
returning the chair for a refund (Restocking fees and shipping charges will be applied). This chair is designed and intended for indoor
shower and bathroom use. It is not designed for outdoor use and will void the warranty if used in this fashion. If thresholds, shower
curbs or barriers are encountered that exceed ½” in height, the area in question should be brought within the code for disabled acces-
sibility.
SAFETY PRECAUTION!
If any of the legs are not fitted correctly into the socket of the seat
frame or are not securely tightened there is an extreme risk of the
legs dislodging completely from the chair. This could cause seri-
ous injury or even death!
Figure 1
Figure 2
SAFETY PRECAUTION!
Both backrest posts must be completely engaged with the seat
frame and securely tightened. If they are not fitted correctly, there
is a risk of the posts dislodging from the seat frame. This could
cause serious injury or even death!

FThe tilt mechanism is operated by pulling the spring loaded
crank lever outwards and rotating the handle. Once the tilt angle
is reached, we recommend either having the unit at its
highest/largest tilt angle or flat, slowly release the spring loaded
lever and it will automatically lock itself into one of the indexing
holes on the indexing disk (Refer to Figure 3)
G Index the handle by first positioning the seat in the horizontal
position. The end of the crank handle should be approximately
over the flat head socket bolt on the frame.
H Adjustments to the “Tilt Assembly” need to be made as fol-
lows: Remove the “crank handle” by removing the socket screw
with an 1/8” Allen wrench. Remove the cap from the opposite
side of the frame, again using an 1/8” Allen wrench, and install it
on this side. Reinstall the crank handle on the opposite side of
the frame (Refer to Figure 4)

I Seat Cushion Orientation: The standard seat cushion orienta-
tion is with the commode opening in the front of the multiCHAIR.
If desired, the commode opening can also be orientated
left/right/rear. This can be accomplished by unscrewing the four
button head cap screws that attach the cushion to the frame, ori-
entating the commode opening to the desired location and then
re-attaching the cushion to the frame with the four screws using
the 5/32” Allen wrench
J Cantilever Arms: If desired, the cantilever arms can be
removed from the backrest assembly for storage during traveling.
This can be accomplished by unscrewing the socket head cap
screws that attach the arms to the backrest posts using the 5/32”
Allen wrench. Then remove the arm assemblies from the posts
and re-insert the socket head cap screws into the arm assem-
blies, so they are not lost. To re-install the cantilever arms, simply
follow the steps above in reverse (Refer to Figure 5).

AEnsure all fasteners (bolts/washers) are securely tightened
and all chair parts have been assembled correctly (Refer back
to Assembly Instructions if needed. Contact Nuprodx, Inc. if
unsure of anything).
B Commode Chair: Position the multiCHAIR over the toilet, so
that the center of the commode opening is directly above the
center of the toilet bowl. Adjust the height of the multiCHAIR
accordingly by setting the position of the brass buttons on the
four inner legs to the various adjustment holes on the outer
legs. Then lock the caster wheels in place. Note: Make height
adjustments to the multiCHAIR before the user has transferred
onto it (Refer to Figure 10).
C Shower Chair: Position the multCHAIR inside the shower.
Adjust the height of the multiCHAIR accordingly by setting the
position of the brass buttons on the four inner legs to the vari-
ous adjustment holes on the outer legs. Note: Make height
adjustments to the multiCHAIR before the user has transferred
onto it.
D Cantilever Arms: The cantilever arms can be adjusted to the
desired height by completing the following steps: Loosen the
socket head cap screws on the arm clamps, raise/lower the
arms accordingly, then re-tighten the socket head cap screws
(Refer to Figure 12). For safety purposes, the cantilever arms
lock in the down position. To switch the arms to the up position,
simply push the arms toward the back of the chair (releasing
the locking mechanism) and lift up (Refer to Figure 13).
E Footrest Assemblies: Slide the footrest into the front cor-
ners of the tilt frame and tighten the pinch bolts. Slide up/down
as required by the user’s leg length (refer to Figure 14)
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Figure 10
SAFETY PRECAUTION!
Ensure that the height of each inner leg is set to make the
multiCHAIR level. If this is not properly done, the multiCHAIR
could tip to one side causing the user to fall. This could result in
serious injury or even death!
Figure 12
Figure 13
SAFETY PRECAUTION!
The swing-away footrests should be installed into the footrest
clamps after the user has been transferred into the chair. Putting
an extreme amount of weight on the swing-away footrests or
using them as an assistive device when transferring can cause
the entire chair to tip forward, resulting in serious injury or even
death!

ADDITIONAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
!ATTENTION: PLEASE READ!
WARNING! Failure to account for the afformentioned and the following safety precautions can result in serious
injury to the user or even death!
A Leg Height Adjustment: When making height adjust-
ments to any of the legs, make sure that the brass but-
tons are fully engaged into the outer legs. If pushed too
hard the button could become stuck inside the inner leg
(Contact Nuprodx, Inc. if this occurs). Leg height adjust-
ment should only be made before transferring the user
into the chair (Refer to Figure 14)
BCaster Wheels: Before transferring into and out of the
chair, all four caster wheels must be securely planted
onto the floor and switched to the locked position.
Failure to do so could cause the chair to become unsta-
ble (Refer to Figure 14)
CFasteners: Over time the screws and washers on the
chair may become loose. It is very important that these
are checked and securely tightened before each use.
Failure to do so could cause a part to dislodge from the
chair (Refer to Figure 14)

PLEASE NOTE
A buildup of soap scum, calcium and minerals can result in the tilt mechanism ceasing. To prevent this, it is recommended that
all soap be thoroughly rinsed out of the tilt mechanisms after each use, and CLR cleaner be sprayed into the tilt mechanism
gears at least once a month (more often if the unit is used in areas where there is hard water). Please contact Nuprodx
customer service if there are any questions 707-934-8266. Thank you for being a customer of Nuprodx!
