Installation Instructions:

Installation to Wall. Secure unit to wall at points indicated by an S, with the two mounting flanges located at top and the
baseplate and guide bracket below. The bottom of the support tube must be positioned within the baseplate and guide
bracket before they are secured to wall. Mounting height of shower seat must comply with local building codes.
For stud walls, provide concealed backing to comply with local building codes and secure with #14 x 2-1/2" (6.3 x 65mm)
stainless steel sheet-metal screws furnished by manufacturer.
For masonry walls, provide fiber plugs or expansion shields for use with furnished screws, or provide 1/4" (6mm) toggle
bolts or expansion bolts.
Caution: These shower seats are no stronger than the anchors and walls to which they are attached and, therefore,
must be firmly secured in order to support the loads for which they are intended.
How to Reverse Shower Seat. The solid phenolic shower seat surface may be positioned on the stainless steel frame with
the longer 20-15/16" (530mm) side on the left or right. The repositioning of the shower seat surface may be done on the
frame before installation on the wall, or after the unit has been installed.
If repositioning the seat surface before installation of the unit on the wall; place entire unit on a horizontal surface; remove carriage
bolts and acorn nuts (4); turn seat over reversing position of long and short ends; reinstall carriage bolts and acorn nuts.
If repositioning the seat surface after the unit has been installed on the wall; lower folding seat to horizontal position; remove
carriage bolts and acorn nuts (4); turn seat over reversing position of long and short ends; reinstall carriage bolts and acorn nuts.
Important Notes: Support square frame tubes when loosening and removing carriage bolts and acorn nuts; the square
frame tubes may separate from the round tubes that support the solid phenolic shower seat. If square and round frame tubes
come apart when solid phenolic shower seat is removed, reassemble by placing round frame tube ends in the round holes on
the sides of the square frame tubes
