INSTRUCTION

INSTALLATION

See picture at right with components labeled. The raised toilet seat has four rim clamps (two front and two rear) that attach it to the toilet rim, and four seat brackets (two front and two rear), into which the clamps screw, that adjust seat height.

INSTRUCTION

  1. Screw the two front rim clamps into the frontseat brackets and adjust seat front to desired height. Ensure the height of both front clamps is the same.

  2. Screw the two back rim clamps into the back seat brackets and adjust seat back to desired height. Ensure the height of both back clamps is the same.
    WARNING: For stability, ensure front clamps are adjusted to the same height and back clamps are adjusted to the same height. For certain situations such as postoperative, hip conditions or arthritis, seat back can be adjusted slightly higher than seat front (front clamps don’t need to be adjusted to the same height as back clamps).

  3. Align the back rim clamps and front rim clamps to the toilet seat rim and press down on raised toilet seat to snap them on. If the clamps are too loose, squeeze them closed slightly to ensure a tight fit.

Locking Clamps
Tighten the wing nuts until the sides of the clamps are secure against the sides of the toilet bowl rim.
