VR130: Coniston Rotating Bather
Fixing and Maintenance Instructions
Finally retest for rotation and stability. If you are satisfied then your Coniston rotating
bather is ready for use.
It is important that you test the Coniston rotating bather for security prior to
each use. If the seat or frame is loose in any way, please repeat the
installation instructions above.
7. Maintenance
Your Coniston rotating bather is provided with the spline and female coupling
pre
‑
greased. It will be necessary for you to re-grease on an occasional basis; this will
ensure the continued smooth operation of your product.
The first sign of the need to re-grease will be when the rotating action becomes tight,
this is normally followed by a squeeking noise.
To carry out the re-grease simply remove the seat section from the base exposing the
spline and female coupling. Grease both sections and carefully reassemble following
the instructions under sections 5.8 and 6 above.
8. Cleaning
All of the product components are manufactured from quality materials. However, it is
very important that you only clean your Coniston using a non-abrasive cleaner or mild
detergent with a soft cloth avoid using lime scale remover. Abrasive cleaners e.g. AJAX
and or abrasive cleaning pads will seriously damage your product beyond repair.
N.B. Regular daily cleaning will reduce the build up of lime scale on your product.
Under No Circumstances must you use any abrasive cleaners or materials on any of the
components.
9. Use of bath oils
Caution should be observed if you are using any form of bath oils or oily skin
preparation with your Coniston as this may impair your natural contact skin resistance.
In the event of using any such oil, your seat must be thoroughly cleaned with a
suitable detergent to break down any oily residue. Failure to observe this
recommendation could impair your safety.
10. Fitting the extension piece
If required the Coniston bather extender can be fitted to provide extra height to
the seat (see fig. 9). To fit, carefully separate the seat section from the base section
and bolt the extender on the base section using the four stainless steel nylonic
locking nuts and bolts provided.
After ensuring that all four bolts are tightly secured,
place the seat section back into place ensuring that
the spline of the extension piece fully locates into the
female locator hole on the base of the seat
Test the extension piece by rotating the seat through
360
o
and locking the seat into each of the
predetermined lock points set at 90
o
intervals.

It is important that you test the Coniston rotating bather for security prior

strongly advised that you use the wall stabilizing plate in conjunction with
the extender to reduce the chance of tilt.
