3.3 Assembly 9404-A
The folding shower seat can be xed to walls
made of concrete, aerated concrete, solid brick,
hollow brick and gypsum concrete with chip-
board reinforcement.
1. Mark the drill holes on the wall using the
drill hole template.
2. Drill the holes (Ø 8 mm) in the wall and t
dowels.
3. Position the wall panel in accordance with
the drill holes (Fig. 2, 1). Only tighten the
screws so that the wall panels can still move.
Align the wall panels using the spirit level
and tighten the screws.
4. Unfold the shower seat (Fig. 2, 2).
5. Adjust the height of the seat surface with
the aid of the spirit level using the telescopic
legs and adjusting screws (Chapter 4.2). The
seat surface should be aligned horizontally.
6. Then insert the cover caps (8 pcs.) (Fig. 2, 3)
into the opening of the wall xing.
NOTE
Ensure that there is enough room to move when
positioning the shower seat. Both legs must
stand securely and there must be no obstacle to

4.1 Adjusting seat height
1. Pull out the pin clip on the telescopic leg

is fully engaged on the tube. The pin clip
must visibly and noticeably come out of the

sured that the pins are guided safely through
the holes and provide the shower chair with the
necessary stability.
