Installation of the Bathroom Gem Wedge
Toilet
Installing the Bathroom Gem Wedge Toilet is a
very easy process. Your plumber should have all the tools,
equipment and knowledge necessary for a successful installation.
Step 1: Location Selection
The first step is selecting a convenient
location for the floor toilet that is easily accessible to an
individual who uses a wheelchair. The location should be
within 10 feet of a cold water supply (such as the cold water supply
for a sink or conventional toilet), and within 5 feet of a drain line
(either the home's drainage system or a conventional toilet).
Step 2: Attach to Cold Water Supply
Locate the cold water supply source.
If located in the wall, drill a hole to expose access to the
line. Attach a 3/8" T-connector to the cold water supply line
(or attach to the cold water supply line of a sink or conventional
toilet).
Step 3: Attach to Drain
Locate the waste line connection, either
directly into the toilet (using the clip to attach to the toilet bowl)
or into the drain line at the most convenient location.
Step 4: Attach Side Ramp
Determine if the bag release is on the left or
right foot side for the individual who will be using the
toilet. Attach the side ramp unit on either the left or right
side as is appropriate.
Step 5: Attach Side Rails
Attach the side rails (toe kick) units to both
sides of the toilet.
Step 6: Attach Front Ramp
Attach the front ramp unit to the toilet.
Step 7: Position and Secure the Toilet
Slide the toilet so it is flush to the wall at
the desired location. Anchor both sides of the toilet
securely to the floor.
Step 8: Connect to Power Supply
Plug the 110-volt GFI plug into any grounded
power outlet.
Your new Bathroom Gem Wedge Toilet is now ready
for use.
