If a wooden floor is fitted with a floor covering eg. hardboard,
tiles, carpet, plastic flooring etc, the expansion anchor should
be inserted so it's top face is flush with the original wooden
floor. (see Fig 7)
The
resulting
gap
between
the
top
of
the
anchor/floorboarding and the finished floor level (tip surface
of floor covering) must be made up using the spacers
supplied.
Continuation (for concrete and wooden floors)
Position the base over the nylon plugs/expansion anchors and secure with the screws, as shown in
Figs. 4 and 5. Tighten the screws to form a rigid fixing.
Ensure all bolts and screws are fully
tightened on the unit and base.
Re-position the elevating unit and chair into the base plate socket.
Check that the base is securely fixed by putting your weight on the outside of the chair.
Rotate the chair and test in several positions.
With the elevating unit adjustment plunger inserted into the top hole of the base plate socket.
Position the chair over the bath and wind the handle until the chair is at its lowest position.
Support the jacking tube by holding where the curved chair support arm joins it (a second person may
be required for this operation) press in the adjustment plunger and slide the complete jacking unit
down in the base socket until the correct chair position has been attained (see Fig. 2). Release the
plunger into the next highest hole in the base socket.
When the Autolift electric has been installed, before it is used it must be thoroughly examined and load
the maximum safe working load (SWL) (shown on the rating label attached to the support arm).
When it has been inspected and load tested satisfactorily your Autolift electric is then ready for use.
