Mermaid & Ranger
Height Adjustment of the Seat:
The seat height must be carefully set to avoid damage to the bottom of the bath in normal use.
With the seat aligned with the centre line of the bath, slacken the seat clamp again.
Take care not to allow the seat to rotate out of alignment, slide the clamp up to its maximum
position and lightly re-tighten. Using the hand control, wind the seat to its lowest position (until
the bottom stop is encountered). Slacken the clamp again and carefully slide it down the mast
until the bottom of the seat is 3 - 5cms from the bottom of the bath. Lightly tighten the clamp and
recheck the alignment of the seat in the bath. FULLY tighten the clamp Allen screw. The Allen
screw is high tensile and must be fully tightened to effect a positive lock.
If the seat hits the bath before the end stop is encountered, additional steps must be taken to
avoid damage to the bath. The Mermaid and Ranger have been designed to be compatible
with a wide range of bath designs but the installer may encounter baths which do not conform
to “normal” design. If the seat “bottoms out” before the end stop on the lift is encountered, this
indicates the bath is elevated higher than normal. Firstly, check the seat is wound up to the
highest position and clears the top edge of the bath.
Remember, a loaded lift will be lower than an unloaded one, so make sure there is sufficient
clearance. If the seat satisfactorily clears the top edge of the bath then a stop collar (available
optionally) can be used to set the lowest position. If the seat does not clear the top edge of the
bath then the lift must be fitted with spacers (available optionally) at the bottom of the mast. The
spacers are 75mm in height and a maximum of 2 can be used, giving a maximum additional
height of 150mm.
