3. Install Safety Plate to Wall
Safety Plate is to be mounted on wall near Shower Seat in order to properly advise users of the Seat's weight restrictions. Correct
installation of the Safety Plate will ensure that the Shower Seat meets A.N.S.I. Standards.
Permanently afx Safety Plate to wall on either side of the Shower Seat at a minimum height of 30" (760mm). If mounted above Seat,
the Plate must be high enough so that it is not covered when Seat is on the up position. Mounting screws (4) are recommended, but
double-sided tape on rear of Plate may be used for very smooth, non-porous surfaces.
SAFETY WARNING: Shower seats are no stronger than the anchors and walls to which they are attached and
must be firmly secured in order to support the loads for which they are intended. Consult and comply with local
building codes. To avoid potential injury, the building owner or maintenance personnel should remove the shower
seat from service if the shower seat is not adequately secured to the wall. Unit shall support static loads of up
to 360 lbs (163 kg) when properly installed and used. To avoid potential seat malfunction, DO NOT use seat if
weight exceeds 360 lbs (163 kg).
4. 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.
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. Bobrick shower seats, when properly installed, have sufficient strength to support 400 lbs, complying
with accessible design guidelines (including ADAAG in U.S.A.).
