How to install Chrome-Plated Wall Mounted Grab Bar?

Tools Required for Grab Bar Installation:

• 3/8” or 1/4” electric drill
• extension cord
• 5/32” drill bit for drilling pilot hole in wood stud
• 1/4” drill bit for clearance hole with tile if appropriate
• sharp center punch
• level, soft grease pencil
• hammer
• screwdriver
• stud finder
• toggle bolts (if not able to install into wall stud)

Included: 6- 2” screws and 2 rubber gaskets (Gaskets Contain Dry Natural Rubber).

1. Position grab bar at angle best accommodates user’s needs and allows at least one end to be mounted into the wall stud. Mark hole locations with soft grease pencil. When locating vertical or horizontal positions, use your level. If one end cannot be mounted into a wall stud, you must use a butterfly toggle fastener (not supplied).
2. There are three types of mounting:
   • Mounting Directly Into Wood Studs: Drill 5/32” pilot hole. Place rubber gasket between bar and the wall. Insert the screws through hole in bar and hole in the rubber gasket.
   • Mounting Through Tile: (Caution: Avoid drilling into water lines)
     • At the mark for your hole, take your sharp center punch and gently chip the glaze away. The chipped area need be no larger than the hole you are going to drill.
     • Once the glaze is chipped, take the 1/4” tile drill bit into the wall. If you strike wood, stop drilling. Switch to the 5/32” drill bit and drill 1” into the wood. First insert the screw through the screw cover base. If you do not penetrate wood, see instructions for mounting with a toggle bolt.
   • Mounting Using A Toggle Fastener (not supplied)
     • Drill hole using drill bit large enough to receive the toggle fastener.
     • Insert the toggle bolt through the hole for the screw cover base, spin butterfly tip on just enough to be secure, then feed bolt through large hole drilled.
     • Once the butterfly is inserted it will fly open on the inside of the wall. Pull out on the grab bar to make sure the butterfly has opened properly (reference illustration). Drive screw down until you feel the bar snug to the wall using screwdriver
3. Test the bar for tightness by applying full body force to ensure that it is solidly anchored.
