installation instructions

1.

Check the vacuum suction discs and the surface it

is to be attached to.

2. Clean the surface thoroughly.
3. Press the rubber discs firmly to the surface. The

tilting vacuum levers must be loose at this point

and the whole of each rubber disc must lie on

the surface.

4. Ensure that the rubber discs are completely on the

tile area or other surfaces so that the discs do

not cover any grouting lines or other joints. The

discs should be positioned at least 1/2” away

from all joints.

5. First press down one tilting lever and then the

second. The resistance of the negative pressure

generated must be clearly felt. The greater the

resistance felt on the vacuum lever, the better the

suction power of the grab bar. The indicator on

the side of the suction cup will change from RED to

GREEN when a safe and secure hold is achieved.

If you use the bar regularly, you will get a feel for

the vacuum strength and the suction power

generated.

6. Before each use, test the firm hold of the suction

device making sure both indicators are GREEN.

If the adhesion seems insufficient, release the rail

and reattach again. If the required suction power

has not been achieved, the rail should not be used.

7. Item # 13084-3 can easily be adjusted by releasing

the middle suction cup and one end suction cup

and rotating to the desired position. Once the

desired position is achieved (making sure the

suction cups do not cover any grouting lines or

joints), repeat Step 5 for both suction cups.
