BEFORE USE

CLEANING
All of the product components are manufactured from quality materials. However, it is very important that you only clean your toilet frame using a non-abrasive cleaner or mild detergent with a soft cloth and avoid using lime scale remover.
Under no circumstances use any abrasive cleaners or materials on any of the components. Also check that the cleaner you intend to use is suitable for ABS, Vinyl, Polymer Plastics and Thermo plastic rubbers and Polyurethane Rubber.
NB. Regular daily cleaning will reduce the build-up of limescale on your product.
Body spillages should be cleaned as and when they occur (giving particular attention to the area where the frame width is extended), as this will avoid causing rust or corrosion which could damage/weaken the frame.
Our equipment can be cleaned and or disinfected as per MHRA guidance on decontamination MHRA DB 2003 (06). This product is suitable for cleaning with moist heat or autoclaving. When using moist heat the equipment can be held at 81°c for at least one minute to achieve disinfection.
ADJUSTMENTS TO HEIGHT EXTENSION LEGS
- Remove the ‘E’ clip from the extension leg and extend all four 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 desired height; reinstall the ‘E’ clip, ensuring that it has passed through the extension leg and is fitting neatly and snug around the outside leg. (See fig. 2).
- Never install the extension legs unevenly or slanting, this will compromise the safety of the user.
ADJUSTMENTS TO WIDTH EXTENSION BARS
- Remove the ‘E’ clip from the extension bar and extend the frame to the desired width (See fig. 1)
- Once you have achieved the desired width, reinstall the ‘E’ clip, ensuring that it has passed through the extension bar and is fitting neatly and snug around the outside leg. (See fig. 2).
- Ensure the e-clip has passed through BOTH the external tube and the internal extension bar (See fig. 3) Do not use if the e-clip is only through the internal extension bar (See fig. 4)
FITTING OF THE FLOOR FIXING KIT
(OPTIONAL EXTRA SUPPLIED WHEN ORDERING VR203)
Remove the ‘E’ clips from the extension legs and completely remove the extension legs from the frame. Insert the supplied floor fixing legs. Select the desired height setting and insert the ‘E’ clips to fix the legs in place. Position the frame into the desired place around the toilet and use appropriate screws (not supplied) to secure the fixing plates to the floor.
