Setup and Installation

Follow these steps to properly install your toilet paper holder:

1. Choose Location: Select a suitable mounting location on your wall. Ensure it is at a convenient height and clear of any electrical wires or plumbing.
2. Mark Mounting Points: Hold the mounting plate (or the product itself if the mounting plate is integrated) against the wall at the desired location. Use a pencil to mark the positions for the screw holes. Use a level to ensure the marks are aligned horizontally.
3. Drill Pilot Holes: Using a drill and the appropriate drill bit size for the provided wall anchors, drill pilot holes at the marked locations. If drilling into a wall stud, anchors may not be necessary.
4. Insert Wall Anchors (if needed): Gently tap the plastic wall anchors into the pilot holes until they are flush with the wall surface.
5. Attach Mounting Plate: Position the mounting plate over the drilled holes (or anchors). Insert the mounting screws through the plate and tighten them securely with a Phillips head screwdriver. Do not overtighten.
6. Secure Toilet Paper Holder: Align the toilet paper holder assembly with the attached mounting plate. Secure the holder to the mounting plate using the small set screw, typically located on the underside of the holder. Tighten the set screw with the provided Allen wrench (if applicable) or a small screwdriver until the holder is firm.

Operating Instructions

The Euro style hook design simplifies the process of changing toilet paper rolls.

1. Removing an Empty Roll: Simply slide the empty toilet paper roll off the open end of the Euro style hook.
2. Installing a New Roll: Slide a new standard-sized toilet paper roll onto the open end of the Euro style hook until it rests securely against the wall-mounted base.

Maintenance

To maintain the finish and appearance of your Allied Brass toilet paper holder, follow these guidelines:

• Cleaning: Clean regularly with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn spots, use a mild soap solution and immediately dry with a clean, soft cloth.
• Avoid Harsh Cleaners: Do not use abrasive cleaners, scouring pads, ammonia-based cleaners, or any cleaning agents containing bleach or harsh chemicals, as these can damage the finish.
• Periodic Check: Periodically check the mounting screws to ensure they remain tight. Retighten if necessary, but do not overtighten.

Troubleshooting

• Holder feels loose: Check the set screw on the underside of the holder and the mounting screws on the wall plate. Tighten them as needed. Ensure wall anchors are properly seated if used.
• Toilet paper roll does not fit: Ensure you are using a standard-sized toilet paper roll. Some oversized or jumbo rolls may not fit all Euro style holders.
