Installation options
Etac Relax has been designed to withstand a maximum vertical static load
of 125 kg (150 kg with support legs) and should only be mounted on a
wall with sufficient load-bearing capacity. Ensure you use suitable fixtures.
Etac recommends Relax accessories; a screw set for mounting on wood/
plywood or concrete walls.
Both the mounting of the seat and assessment of the wall and fixtures'
load-bearing capacity should be carried out by a qualified person.
In the case of other wall materials, or if the load-bearing capacity of the
wall is deemed insufficient for any reason, the wall can be reinforced by a
qualified person.
Mounting on a wall with insufficient load-bearing capacity or
unsuitable fixtures poses a danger to the user!
Installation
1. Installation on uncracked concrete C20/25 up to C50/60. Always mount
using Fischer UX R 10 plugs.
2. Mounting on wood or plywood (min. 12 mm) with partition wall (min.
12 mm).
