Toilet Frames

• READ BEFORE USE
  Before using your new product, you and each person that may assist you in its use should take time to read this manual and follow all instructions.

• INTRODUCTION
  Thank you for deciding to purchase your Commode or Toilet Seat from Aidapt. This product is manufactured from the finest materials available. When used correctly it is designed to give many years of reliable, trouble-free service.

• ALL COMMODES
  Please examine your commode for any visible damage before using. If you see any damage or suspect a fault, please contact your supplier.
  In this case, please do not use your product as it may compromise your safety.

Fixing and Maintenance Instructions

• ADJUSTMENT OF LEGS (IF APPLICABLE)
  Remove the ‘E’ clip from the extension leg and extend all legs evenly to the desired height ensuring you do not exceed the last punched hole of the extension leg. (see fig. 1)
  Once you have achieved the height you need, re-install the ‘E’ clip ensuring that it has passed through the extension leg and is fitting neatly and snugly around the commode leg. (see fig. 2)
  Make sure that all legs are sitting evenly onto the floor; never extend legs in a manner that the commode is slanting. This will compromise the safety of the user.

• SURREY/SUFFOLK COMMODES ONLY
  The Surrey/Suffolk Commode has detachable arms; to remove these simply lift the arms out the locating tubes welded to the side of the commode frame. Always ensure that the arms are re-fitted neatly and evenly into the locating tubes before use. Failure to do so will compromise the safety of the user.

• COMMODE BUCKETS (ALL COMMODES)
  To remove the commode bucket, simply lift the toilet seat and fix the lid provided onto the bucket to avoid splashing and carefully raise the bucket and dispose of the contents into a proper sluice or WC. Never use an open drain, sink or basin. This could cause a serious health risk. Clean out the residue with a suitable disinfectant and refit to the commode after use

• CLEANING (ALL COMMODES)
  All commodes must be cleaned using a non-abrasive cleaner or can be pressure washed. However, always ensure that any chemicals you use with your pressure washing will not affect chrome plate, polymer coating or epoxy powder coating. After cleaning use a water dispersing agent such as WD40 on all joints and castors to reduce the chance of premature rust or seizure.

• WHEELS (IF APPLICABLE)
  The two small wheels attached are to assist in moving and positioning the commode. They must not be used to move the commode whilst in use or when somebody is seated on the commode.
