Safety advice
· Improper installation/use can cause accidents and
injuries.
· Any improper use e.g. as a gymnastic apparatus or
climbing aid can cause an accident with persons
potentially suffering serious injury.
· The installer must pass on the installation and use
instructions to the user and they must be kept for
the whole life of the product.
Mounting
· On acceptance the product must be checked for
damage; any defects must be reported immediately.
· Mounting only by persons familiar with mounting
of the product and appropriate qualifications for
their activity.
· The licensed contractor should ensure that the entire
area of the wall to which the wall mounting plate is
to be fitted is flat (no projecting joints or tiles sticking
out), that the structure of the wall is suitable for the
installation of the support rail and has no weak points
· Only use fixing materials approved by the wall anchor
manufacturer for the intended purpose. In case of
doubt, contact HEWI's support.
· An additional wall fixing will be required for the use
of an removable hanging seat if the horizontal rail is
longer than 1200 mm. The distance between the two
supports should not exceed 850 mm.
Utilisation
· The HEWI shower and bath grab rail is designed to
withstand a maximum static working load of 150 kg.
· In such cases, the support rail must be examined
by an specialised company prior to the support rail
being used again.
· The fact that the support rail bends to a certain
extent under load is normal. Should however the
support rail become permanently deformed, you
should immediately contact the company appointed
to carry out maintenance work or HEWI's support.

Maintenance
The product must be serviced annually.
1. Inspection of fixing
The product should be mounted firmly at all fixing
points and should fit tightly to the surface to which
it is fixed. If necessary, the rose caps should be
removed and the screws used to fix the rail in place
tightened up. Any defects identified during inspecti-
on should only be remedied by persons qualified to
do so.
2. Inspection of surface finish
3. The surface finish of the rail should have no fractures
or other damage that could cause
personal injury. There should be no gaps at the
joints between the straight elements and the bend
elements.
