IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
INFORMATIONS IMPORTANTS EN MATIÈRE DE SÉCURITÉ À LA PAGE 4
IMPORTANTE INFORMACIÓN DE SEGURIDAD EN LA PÁGINA 4
Read all instructions and warnings prior to beginning installation of
this Grab Bar. Save this instruction booklet for future reference.
WARNING To reduce the likelihood of injury, thoroughly read and
understand all safety information and instructions provided in this
instruction booklet. If you are unable to understand any of the safety
information and/or installation instructions, contact a professional for
assistance before attempting to install.
SAFETY INFORMATION FOR INSTALLATION
WARNING ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD! CUTTING OR DRILLING
INTO ELECTRICAL CORDS OR CABLES CAN CAUSE DEATH, SERIOUS
PERSONAL INJURY AND FIRE! ALWAYS make certain area behind
mounting surface is free of electrical wires and cables before drilling or
installing fasteners. Proper installation is extremely important. If in
doubt, installation should be done by a qualified professional.
WARNING To avoid injury to eyes, wear safety glasses during
installation of Grab Bar.
WARNING To help reduce the likelihood of serious injury, read and
comply with all safety information and instructions. Grab Bar may not
provide the designed amount of support unless these installation
instructions are strictly followed.
• Grab Bar was designed and tested for interior bathroom use. Grab
Bars add security for bath and commode areas if attached as
instructed. Location, size, and angle of bars should be determined
by a qualified professional to provide optimum safety and function.
This Grab Bar can be installed in the bathing area. For placement
recommendations, please visit our website at
www.LibertyHardware.com.
• Both ends MUST be secured to a wall stud. If that’s not possible, use
only a Delta Hollow Wall Anchor (sold separately), DF549 (pictured to
the left), DF548 (not pictured), or other wall anchor designed for Grab
Bar installation is used. DO NOT use plastic anchors, toggle bolts, or
similar devices. If a wall anchor must be used, the safest practice is to
have one side of the assist bar attached to a wall stud.
• At least two (2) of the three (3) screws on each end of the Grab Bar
MUST go through the wallboard or tile and be tightly secured into the
wall stud or wood blocking, unless a wall anchor is used.
• If using the Delta Hollow Wall Anchor (DF549), one anchor must be
used per side.
SAFETY INFORMATION FOR USE OF GRAB BAR
WARNING This Grab Bar can provide support and increased
stability for an individual weighing up to 500 pounds. Grab Bars are
NOT designed to support the total weight of an individual. To reduce
likelihood of faling or serious injury due to failure of Grab Bar:
• Use Grab Bar for assistance ONLY.
• DO NOT stand, sit, or step on Grab Bar.
• DO NOT use Grab Bar as a step or platform to reach area above the bar.
WARNING Falls can cause a serious injury. To reduce that risk:
• Grasp the Grab Bar when exiting or entering the bathtub or when
sitting down or rising from the commode.
• Use caution on wet tub or floor surfaces. Wet tub or floor surfaces
increase the risk of a fall.
• Supervise and/or assist users with limited physical capabilities in bath
and commode areas, even when using Grab Bars.
• DO NOT use Grab Bar if any looseness is noted. After ANY
adjustments, repair or service and BEFORE use, make sure that all
attaching hardware is securely tightened.
