ADJUSTMENT OF LEGS (IF APPLICABLE)
Remove the ‘E’ clip from the extension leg and extend all legs evenly to the desired
height ensuring you do not exceed the last punched hole of the extension leg. (see
fig. 1)
Once you have achieved the height you need, re-install the ‘E’ clip ensuring that it
has passed through the extension leg and is fitting neatly and snugly around the
commode leg. (see fig. 2)
Make sure that all legs are sitting evenly onto the floor; never extend legs in a
manner that the commode is slanting. This will compromise the safety of the user.
SURREY/SUFFOLK COMMODES ONLY
The Surrey/Suffolk Commode has detachable arms; to remove these simply lift the
arms out the locating tubes welded to the side of the commode frame. Always
ensure that the arms are re-fitted neatly and evenly into the locating tubes before
use. Failure to do so will compromise the safety of the user.
COMMODE BUCKETS (ALL COMMODES)
To remove the commode bucket, simply lift the toilet seat and fix the lid provided
onto the bucket to avoid splashing and carefully raise the bucket and dispose of
the contents into a proper sluice or WC. Never use an open drain, sink or basin. This
could cause a serious health risk. Clean out the residue with a suitable disinfectant
and refit to the commode after use
CLEANING (ALL COMMODES)
All commodes must be cleaned using a non-abrasive cleaner or can be pressure
washed. However, always ensure that any chemicals you use with your pressure
washing will not affect chrome plate, polymer coating or epoxy powder coating.
After cleaning use a water dispersing agent such as WD40 on all joints and castors
to reduce the chance of premature rust or seizure.
WHEELS (IF APPLICABLE)
The two small wheels attached are to assist in moving and positioning the
commode. They must not be used to move the commode whilst in use or when
somebody is seated on the commode.
