How to Install an Elongated Toilet Seat
- 1). Use a bathroom cleaner and rag to clean off the elongated toilet bowl. Pay special attention to the hinge openings at the rear of the toilet.
- 2). Align the elongated toilet seat so that the bolts at the rear match up to the holes in the back of the elongated bowl. Slowly lower the seat until the bolts poke through the bottom of the holes.
- 3). Adjust the elongated seat so it sits directly over the bowl by moving the seat to the right or the left.
- 4). Thread the nuts onto the handle threads on the underside of the elongated bowl. Do this for both bolts. Tighten hand tight.
- 5). Raise and lower the elongated toilet seat to ensure that it works correctly. Make further adjustments, if needed.
- 6). Tighten the nuts securely with an adjustable wrench or pair of pliers.
