INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
WALL BAR MAY NOT PROVIDE DESIGNED AMOUNT OF
SUPPORT UNLESS THESE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
ARE STRICTLY FOLLOWED.
For proper installation, both ends of Wall Bar MUST be installed
into a wall stud. For solid support, at least two (2) of the three (3)
screws on each end of the Wall Bar MUST go through the wall-
board or tile and be tightly secured into the wall stud. Given
standard stud sizes, only two (2) of the three (3) screws may
screw into the wall stud.
Wall Bar may be installed vertically, horizontally or at an
angle, so long as at least two (2) of the three (3) mounting
screws on each end of the Wall Bar are secured into a wall
stud. Locate the wall studs behind the wall before beginning
installation (a stud finder can be obtained from a hardware store).
WARNING
THE FOLLOWING STEPS REQUIRE DRILLING INTO THE WALL.
When drilling into the wall, exercise care to avoid any electrical
wiring or plumbing that may be located behind the wall. Damaged
electrical wiring can cause electrical shock and/or fire. Since older
homes do not always fall in line with current housing codes and
requirements, know where internal wall wiring is located so that no
wires will interfere with your installation.
PROPER INSTALLATION IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. IF IN
DOUBT, INSTALLATION SHOULD BE DONE BY A QUALIFIED
PROFESSIONAL.
USING WALL BAR
1. Read, understand and follow the information in the SAFETY
WARNINGS section of this instruction sheet. Delta shall have
no liability for any damage or injury caused by improper install-
ation or use of this Wall Bar.
2. Grasp the Wall Bar when exiting or entering the bathtub or
shower.
3. Use EXTREME caution on wet tub or floor surfaces.
4. DO NOT put entire weight on Wall Bar. Wall Bar is rated for
persons weighing up to 300 pounds when properly installed.
5. DO NOT stand, sit or step on Wall Bar. DO NOT use Wall Bar
as a step or platform to reach area above the tub. Use the bar
for assistance ONLY.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
1. Use of mild soap and water or a non-abrasive cleaner is recom-
mended for cleaning.
2. Periodically inspect the Wall Bar for damage or looseness. DO
NOT use if any damage or looseness exists. Contact your
authorized dealer for assistance.
3. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
BEFORE INSTALLING THE WALL BAR:
1. Remove the Wall Bar and parts from the package. If concealed
mount Wall Bar is used, move cover plates away from mounting
holes.
2. Determine where you want to install Wall Bar.
3. Place Wall Bar on wall at desired position. If mounting horizon-
tally or vertically, check that the Wall Bar is level.
4. With a pencil, mark the centres of the mounting hole positions
on one end. These are the points where you will later drill holes
for putting in the screws.
5. Repeat Step 4 for the other end of the Wall Bar.
TO INSTALL INTO WOOD WALL STUDS:
6. Put on safety glasses before starting.
7. Use the 3/8" power drill and 5/32" drill bit to drill all holes into
the wall and wood wall studs at the marked positions. NOTE:
If installing Wall Bar over ceramic tiles, the 1/4" carbide tip drill
bit will be needed for drilling through the tile, in order to prevent
damage to the tiles. Drill pilot holes through the tiles by using a
1/4" carbide tip drill bit. Once a hole has been drilled through
the ceramic tiles, use the 5/32" drill bit to drill a pilot hole in the
wood wall stud itself.
8. Place Wall Bar on wall, aligning mounting holes with the holes
in the wall.
9. Insert the wood screws provided into one end of the Wall Bar.
Screw into wall and wall stud (HAND TIGHTEN ONLY).
10. Repeat Step 4 for opposite end of the Wall Bar.
11. Securely tighten all mounting wood screws with a screwdriver.
12. If concealed mount Wall Bar is used, move cover plates over
mounting holes and firmly press against the wall.
IMPORTANT NOTE: PULL ON WALL BAR TO ENSURE THAT
A SECURE INSTALLATION HAS BEEN ACHIEVED.
Snap the two cover flanges into place, pressing tightly so the three
catches on each wall flange lock into place.
Install Mount/Slide Bracket. Reference Mount/Slide Bracket
instruction installation (separate sheet).
For installations with an existing showerhead:
1. Remove the old showerhead. NOTE: if existing shower arm
has an integral ball connector, replace it with a standard 1/2"
threaded shower arm.
2. Apply plumber tape to shower arm. Hand tighten hose end to
shower arm (or water supply). Tighten with wrench.
CAUTION: Be careful not to damage finish.
3. Carefully thread opposite end of those to the hand shower.
4. Place the hose from the hand shower into the holder (or
bracket) section of the arm mount and slip down. NOTE: The
hose will take a "natural drape" after warm water has been run
through it. CAUTION: Do not force the handle in or out of the
arm mount unit. The hand shower is easily removed from the
arm mount by lifting the handle upward.
NOTE: This "water saver" shower is designed to limit water usage
to 2.5 gallons per minute maximum. A flow control disc is pre-
installed in the end of the handle where the handle attaches to the
hose.
This hand shower is equipped with a push button volume control.
It is not intended as a shut-off valve. A slight trickle of water in the
closed position is normal and indicates the system is still under
water pressure.
Adjusting arm mount unit:
1. The arm mount unit (for the hand shower) can be adjusted by
pushing up or down on the extended lever. Move arm mount
unit to desired position, return lever to "locked" position.
NOTE: Extended lever will move left and right on a horizontally
mounted wall bar.
2. The arm mount unit can also be adjusted by turning either
clockwise or counter-clockwise for desired positioning.
