Using the ASI 3450 - P grab bar is simple. First, choose a suitable location on the wall. Line up the predrilled holes on the flanges with the spots on the wall where you want to install it. Then, use No. 10 self - tapping or oval head mounting screws (not included) to secure the bar in place. Make sure the bar is firmly attached. When using the grab bar, hold it firmly by the peened surface for a secure grip. As for maintenance, simply wipe it with a soft, damp cloth regularly to keep the satin finish clean and shiny. Avoid using abrasive cleaners as they may damage the surface. Also, check the mounting screws from time to time to ensure they remain tight.
