Tearing my hair out trying to hang the toilet. The instructions are probably one of the worst I've ever seen. Has anyone put one of these on before. The clips don't seem to engage.

I remember this being a pain in the neck, and the brackets felt loose until tightened.

You have put the metal sleeve over the top of the rod right? I can’t see this in the photo and is needed to land the grub screw against. They’re the silver bullet shaped things with a notch:



If you get really stuck give Grohes technical helpline a call in the morning.

You can also buy replacement fitments of the black mounts if needed.

The box you are showing is to allow you to close off the cistern and then tile up to the plastic shroud.

Once tiled you can then trim it back flush to tile level.

Your picture isn’t very clear but it looks like you have a pneumatic flush boing by the blue hose.

Take a good look at the Grohe instructions. They might be hard to read but actually are very concise once you get to understand them.

Isn’t there a video on YouTube?

They have them for their flush shower valves, as again, the paper instructions are hopeless due to it being so complex.

Yes there is a video but for my upstairs bathroom I used the full sized frame and it seemed a lot easier. This is the smaller frame and the box i have in my hand is meant to go in that hole is it not?

Is this the low level unit that you are using? The SL 0.82m?

Does the trim fit the top face of the cistern?

I put one of these in our downstairs cloakroom and the flush is on the top not the front face.

Also the Grohe instructions show the trim being screwing in to place over the hole in the cistern.
