Installation of stainless
steel handle ROSA II
The handle is intended for
ROSAII L(P)
It can serve as an elegant accessory, or as a bathtub support piece for disabled people.
If possible, mount the handle prior to installing the bathtub.
However, another advantage of this handle type lies in the fact that it can also be mounted
on an already installed bathtub.
To find the optimal location for the handle, we recommend you to try it directly on the
bathtub.
ROSAII L - stainless steel L, ROSAII P - stainless steel P.

appearance in this position. Use a pencil to mark out the accurate outline of both seating faces of the handle ends.
3.
Remove the covering paper from the template ( ) and apply the transparent self-adhesive foil as accurately as possible to the outline drawn on the
bahtub. Control the " " spacing, and, if needed, adjust the spacing of the openings axis (tolerance 0,5 mm). Drill the Ø 3 mm holes in the positions

marked on the template. Remove the template. To continue, choose one of the following ways:
A) Mounting the handle prior to bathtub installtion

tighten the set-screws with the allen key ( ). Check seating of the handle and the bolts. Some minor measurement inaccuracies can be adjusted by
re-drilling the openings to the max. Ø 10 mm.

Apply a layer of silicon putty (from the backside of the bathtub) around the opening for the washer ( ) before you attach the handle definitely. Use
only appropriate strength to tighten the bolts ( ) to avoid damaging the bathtub.
B) Mounting the handle on an already installed bathtub

This way of installing is more difficult, demanding use of special tools; we therefore recommend you to have it done by professionals. Check
spacing of the bolts ( ) on the handle and compare it to spacing of the holes pre-drilled in the bathtub adjust the spacing if necessary. Enlarge the
3
holes carefully to Ø 11 mm. In the hole, prepare a tapered enlargement (Ø 13 mm, depth 1,5 mm) for the nut-rivet. Try out recessing of the handle
complete with the rivets don´t clinch the rivets yet. Use the riveting tool to fit the nut-rivets ( ) into the openings.

C) Installing the handle on a polyurethane-reinforced bathtub, PU-PLUS
Bathtubs reinforced by sprayed layer of PU have, compared to the laminate-reinforced ones, thicker sides and especially rims. Therefore it is
necessary to measure thickness of the rim first.
9.
If the bathtub side is less than 12 mm thick, follow the instructions given in paragraph or .
10.
If the PU reinforcement in the rim is more than 15 mm thick, install the handle this way:
11.
In the location of ø 3 mm holes drill ø 6,7 mm holes and make an M 8 thread.
12.
Screw the pegs no. with rubber "O-ring" in the thread. To tighten them, use appropriate force (up to 5 Nm) so as not to damage the thread in the
