Mounting Instructions

Mounting instructions and list of components
These mounting instructions only apply to Lateral Adjustment for Ropox Support Washbasin.
The mounting instructions described below apply to mounting of the lateral adjustment system for a right-hand Support Washbasin. The dimensions are the same for a left-hand washbasin.
Note:
Mounting of screws in the wall must always be made considering the strength and condition of the specific wall. The screws provided are intended as a guide for mounting on a concrete wall considering the max. screw loads stated in the mounting instructions.
Before mounting, check that all parts stated in the list of components have been provided.

List of components

Mounting parts

Marking on wall

1. Determine location of centre holes as illustrated.
2. Drill centre holes in the wall and mount rail and relief plate.
3. Make sure that they are flush.
4. Mark the remaining holes in the wall.
5. Drill remaining holes.

 The marking shown has been made so as to avoid jamming between the washbasin and the adjoining wall. The minimum distance of 527mm / 20 ¾” is decisive for avoiding the risk of jamming.
Fasten the rail on the wall

Mount the relief plate on the wall

Mount the plastic cover in the screw holes of the wall rail

Mount the slide carriages on the legs of the washbasin

Mount the washbasin on the lateral adjustment system

Place release handle and wire as illustrated

Place the wire behind the frame ensuring free movement

Fasten the release handle with nut under the table

Fasten the wire with strips through the hole on the back of the frame.

When mounting of water and wastepipe insert connection hoses into cable binders.
Divide cable binders into 2 making them approx. same length and mount with enclosed tools.
After mounting of cable binders the hoses and wastepipe can be connected.
Make sure hoses are above drain/wastepipe, as shown in picture beneath.

Mounting of the lateral adjustment system has now been completed and the product is almost ready for use. Now mount drain and water connection. The picture below shows the hidden connection with the drain behind and under the washbasin.

The picture below shows the visible connection with the drain on the side and under the washbasin.

NOTE: Visible installations require a special plumbing kit. See page 35.
For uneven walls use a distance plate to be inserted between the slide carriage of the lateral adjustment system and the legs of the washbasin, as illustrated in Fig.19.
