3. Test Installation.

A. Raise and lower seat to make sure seat moves freely.

B. When seat is raised parallel to the wall, it will remain in this position until lowered (see Figure 2).

C. Examine seat, fasteners, Mounting Flanges, Baseplate, and Guide Bracket to make sure there are no loose fastenings.

How to Reverse Shower Seat. The solid phenolic shower seat surface may be positioned on the stainless steel frame with the lon- ger 19-5/8'' (500mm) side on the left or right (see Figure 1). 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.

OPERATION:

Shower seat folds up against wall when not in use. The spring at the top of the Baseplate holds seat in upright position until released by pulling the top of the seat away from the wall. Mounting Flanges and Guide Bracket allow for varying mounting heights and leave the floor clear for easy cleaning. Nonporous solid phenolic seat has slots to permit water to drain, does not splinter or require oiling, and will not support growth of bacteria. Slotless round-head carriage bolts and acorn nuts provide additional safety to user. Bobrick shower seats, when properly installed, have sufficient strength to support 400 lbs., complying with barrier-free accessibility guidelines (including ADAAG in U.S.A.).
