Showerbuddy SB3T

All 

Showerbuddy

 shower chairs are supplied with chest and lap restraining straps which ensure the 

correct and safe operation of  the shower chair for both the user(s) and the caregiver. It is important 
that these straps are used every time the shower chair is operated. Please contact your local dealer 
for a detailed list of  straps available as optional accessories. Your 

Showerbuddy

 shower chair is 

equipped with fitting points so that these can be easily and effortlessly attached.

Important!

ADJUSTMENTS SHOULD NEVER BE ATTEMPTED WITH THE USER(S) IN THE CHAIR!

Your authorized 

Showerbuddy

 dealer can help you with any adjustments you may want to make on 

your 

Showerbuddy

 shower chair or can provide clarification on any of  the information contained 

herein.

All castor wheel shafts must be adjusted to the same height. Never attempt to change the 
frame angle by changing the castor position. If  the castor wheels are uneven this will cause 
the chair’s stability to be compromised and may result in tipping.

Heavy Object

To avoid muscle strain or back 
injury, use lift aids and proper 
lifting techniques when 
lifting or moving this product.
