6  MAINTENANCE

Protect your E&J Rehab Shower Commode by having it serviced regularly. Proper care and 
maintenance are essential to keep your Rehab Shower Commode in safe working condition. 
Periodic inspection, adjustment, and replacement of worn parts will provide many years 
of superb performance. When you believe that a component or part of your Rehab Shower 
Commode is not functioning properly, contact your GF authorized distributor immediately, as 
a potentially hazardous condition could result. Only excellent condition is acceptable where 
safety is concerned.

Service manual

There is no service manual for the Rehab Shower Commode. Please contact your GF authorized 
distributor with service questions not answered by this manual.

Info: We recommend that you have a GF authorized distributor perform a six month maintenance 
check, as the dealer may find and correct a problem which might otherwise go undetected and 
eventually cause more serious problems and/or personal injury.

Do-it-yourself maintenance

You can do many of the scheduled maintenance tasks yourself, if you have mechanical 
ability and a few basic tools. Refer to the maintenance schedule below for the recommended 
regularity of each procedure. If any maintenance procedure is not clear to you, ask your GF 
authorized distributor for assistance.
