SOURCE: How to tighten the hinges on a slow close toilet seat?

You don't want to overtighten since you could crack the porcelain. Are your rubber washers in good shape? This will help. You should be able to do this w/out doing any damage.

SOURCE: Removing rusted nuts from bolts to replace toilet seat

Try:

* Penetrating oil...let it soak at least 1/2 hour

* If the nut is stripped, try either grabbing it with vice grips

* If all else fails, either grind it off, or use a nut splitter. Nylon is pretty soft, so it should be relatively easy to break

SOURCE: We have 3 soft closing Toilet seats.Newly

Reach under the bowl of the toilet and feel for a rather large wing-nut bolt on each side of the toilet. You must hold these with your hand and tighten the screws with a screwdriver. If you don't hold these wingnuts, then the screws will keep spinning forever and never tighten. Run your hand directly below the toilet just below the screws and you will find them. VERY EASY FIX!

Toilet seat too loose

Is the nut thats on the under side fastened all the way and If you've done that and the screw keeps getting loose then the threads inside the nut or on the screw may be worn away. If thats the case, you may have to by some new screws and I'm not sure if they sell those separately you would usually have to buy a new toilet seat to get new screws, but try home depot or walmart.

Arm has come loose on 2 of 3 paper holders

Here are the installation instructions:

http://www.moen.com/shared/pdf/YB2808sp.pdf

Is it the connection to the wall that is loose?

At the bottom of the post; facing down to the floor; there should be a square hole which will provide access to the locking tab. Use a small screwdriver to release the locking tab to release the post from the mounting post.

To tighten the mountng post to the wall; besides just tightening the screw; you will likely have to replace the wall anchor. After going to this trouble suggest you use a suitable toggle model rather than a plastic plug that be more secure and long-lasting.

After replacing the wall anchor, reassemble.

When you sit on the ring it veers off to the left and you are left sitting there crooked. How do we adjust it?

See if nuts on studs on bottom where it mounts to the floor & flange are loose. If they are loose tighten both of them evenly. If they are tight you will need to replace wax ring that is between toilet & floor.Turn off shutoff water valve to toilet. Flush once holding down handle to let tank drain. Remove both nuts & lift toilet off flange. Remove wax ring. Scrape all old wax off toilet & floor flange. Install new wax ring. Set down toilet on ring & snug nuts evenly. Sit on seat & apply your weight evenly to distribute wax & level. Retighten nuts. Turn water back on. Allow tank to refill. Flush toilet & check for leaks.

Loose toilet seat

If the screws don't tighten the either the screw threads are stripped or the attachment nut is stripped. Take the screw and nut to any hmoe repair center and get new ones. remember don't over-tighten then screws as this will crack the unit.
