MOUNTING LOCATION

We strongly recommend that you give some thought as to the

optimal location of your Invisia™ Accent Ring before

installation. The following suggestions are offered for your

consideration, however, it is recommended to consider

advice from the appropriate healthcare professional for

locating any support rail.

To determine the optimal location, we recommend holding

the rail in place and walking through the motions of a transfer

(sitting, standing, reaching, etc.). Consider the following

when determining the optimal mounting location:

1.

Ensure shower controls can rotate fully without

interference with rail.

2. If possible, move mounting location to match structure

behind the wall.

3. Avoid electrical / plumbing behind the wall.

4. Where possible, drill through tile - not through grout.

INVISIA™ ACCENT RING INSTALLATION

Place a blanket down in the area that you will be installing the

Invisia™ Accent Ring to protect the shower or bathtub

surfaces from parts that may fall during installation. The

proposed mounting location must be cleaned prior to

installation.

Refer to the fastener chart on page 1 to determine the size of

hole required for the appropriate wall construction.
A1. Mark the horizontal and vertical location of the Invisia™

Accent Ring.
A2. Using supplied hex-key, back off set screws in the rail

sockets so the wall stems can move in and out freely as

shown in

Figure 2a and 2b.

A3. On back of wall stems, peel off backing to expose

adhesive side of rubber gasket washer.
A4. With the wall stems inside the rail sockets , push rail

firmly against wall in marked location as shown in

Figure 3a.

A5. Remove the rail as straight as possible as to not pull the

wall stems off from the wall as shown in

Figure 3b. NOTE:

The peel and stick is not meant to be a permanent adhesive.
A6. Use the wall stem as a locating guide and notch the tile

accurately with supplied center punch as shown in

Figure 4.

NOTE: A light tap is all that is required for punch to make notch.
A7. Use the appropriate drill bit on the notched tile to drill a

pilot hole for the fasteners. If SnapToggle® toggle bolts are to

be used, please see the separate installation instructions.

Continue with step A8.
A8. Fasten the wall stems to the wall with the appropriate

fasteners & waterproofing.
A9. Place the rail back onto the wall stems, and secure rail by

tightening the set screws with supplied hex key as shown in

Figure 5. The rail will pull into the stems as the set screws are

tightened.

The rail will fit best if placed as straight as possible over the

wall stems. If the rail sockets do not easily fit onto the wall

stems at first, this can be adjusted. There is some movement

possible with the oversized hole of the wall stems, and the

location of the wall stems can be adjusted to accommodate

the rail sockets.

NOTE: Perform a final tighten and inspection of all fasteners.

Test the installation by vigorously pulling on the support

handle of the Invisia™ Accent Ring.

Your Invisia™ Accent Ring is now installed.
