Duravit Toilet Seat - Help!!!

[swphil]

Hi

This is my 1st post! I'm trying to find out how to resolve a problem with a toilet seat that is lose. It is a Duravit close coupled model and I have removed the two white lugs from near the seat pivot points. The toilet was installed a couple of years ago and the original instructions and allen keys are not available. I believe a small allen key is required but I have tried several and they don't appear to make any connection when I tried. Guests arriving for Christmas tomorrow so any tips VERY gratefully accepted!

Hi

I did look there but apart from some CAD drawings I could not find anything helpful. Is there a URL you have please?

Thanks in advance

If you have a toilet seat that is continually working loose a good way of fixing the problem is by carving out the front buffers so as part of each buffer sits inside the rim of the bowl thereby preventing the seat sliding sideways,

As you have found out removing the buffers does not always work,

The cause of the problem is that pan manufactorers dont talk to seat manufacturers and vice versa.

Good idea but I firstly need to remove the seat. I think I need an allen key but am not sure of the size or the angle it needs to go into the slot I have opened up.

Surely there must be some Duravit experts out there........... ?
