Aqua Basic XL™ XL - Height-Adjustable Light Weight Shower- & Commode Chair
Aqua Basic XL is a very flexible all-round shower- & commode chair, made 100% in aluminium. This means that
it is both stainless and very light compared to steel chairs. Aqua Basic XL is height-adjustable so that it can be
adapted to the needs of the individual user. The standard equipment includes a soft ergonomically shaped PU
toilet seat with lid. The seat has a cut-away at the front for easy personal hygiene.
The soft backrest with 3 tension straps offers optimal support, yet still allows for access to wash the user’s loin
from the back of the chair.
Aqua Basic XL can quickly, easily and cheaply be changed from a helper-driven shower- & commode chair to a
user-driven shower- & Commode Wheelchair with 24” rear wheels with drive rims.
If you have questions, comments or suggestions for product improvements, please contact your dealer or

Mounting the backrest:
1. Insert the backrest in the two holes behind the seat and tighten the 2 thumb-screws securely.
2. When correctly mounted, the backrest should be absolutely stiff.

increments of 2,5 cm (1”). In the highest position, the seat is 54 cm (21,3”) above the floor, in the lowest 46,5
cm (18,3”).
