You probably just need to tighten mounting screws. Most screws are covered by a cap or cover that snaps into place. You should be able to unsnap the cover with a small blade screwdriver or knife point. Use a wide blade screwdriver on the slotted head screw on top to tighten while holding retaining nuts on the underside of toilet. Some of the screws and nuts are plastic so you should be able to hold the nuts by hand while using screwdriver to tighten screws. If you can't hold nuts by hand use pliers. Some use brass screws and nuts so use proper size wrench to hold nut. Hope this helps you. Thanks

We just installed this toliet yesterday and there was nothing in the instructions about how to set the water level, there is not enough water in the tank to flush the toliet properly

Depending on the type of water regulator/flush valve you have it varies. Usually there is a screw that regulates how much travel there is on the arm with the float on the end, or the float that moves up and down on the column. If you restrict this movement the water fills less and vice versa.

Toliet won't get rid of solids

first shorten the chain from flush lever to the flapper valve by one or two links at a time until flushing properly

second the flapper valve might need a wipedown as well as its seal (top edge of tube where water goes down into bowl) the leaking is because the flapper valve is not seating properly.. you may need to replace the flapper itself.. easy to do, and a common part at hardware store.

Can you just buy a toliet seat base??

Im not sure I understand the question so please excuse me. You can buy a toilet seat, and they usually attach to the toilet bowl. If the porceline that the seat is attached to is broken then the bowl will most likely need to be replaced. Most of the time you can replace the toilet cheaper than just replacing the bowl. Hope this helps.

Toilet seat

Here's what I did. Unscrew them as much as possible. Then I used a bolt cutter and hacksaw to cut away as much of the plastic seat holders as possible. I could then remove most of the seat, and get better access to the screws. I then raised the loose screws enough to cut them with a bolt cutter. Soft screws cut easily. The screw heads are now out. Now, tap down on the screw/anchor and it falls into the bowl. It will stay there. The remaining problem is that you need anchors to secure the new toilet seat. Kohler wants $50. I have a usable but loose seat. Never again-Kohler.
I strongly recommend using a boltcutter. A hacksaw will tear up the bowl.

Kohler lowboy toilet seat does not have bolts underneath

I have the same low boy where the bolts are inside the hollow body of the toilet. I called Kohler customer service and was told to use brute force to yank the toilet seat out. My husband suggested using a saw to cut the bolt but he hasn't done it yet. He wants to replace all our Kohler low boys which constantly leak becos of poor design of handle and flapper. The handle pulls the flapper slightly to the side when you flush. And the flapper lip being a tiny bit too small, if it doesn't sit just right, the toilet leaks. We've replaced one already with a Toto and love it. Too bad that Kohler isn't trying to fix the problem as I see many many online posts with the same problem and recommendation to replace the Kohler with Toto or somethng else.

Tank will not refill after you flush

okay depending on the type of toilet ball **** (i know its a funny word, but it's really what its called.) you have one the most standard type is the long wire with the big ball on the end. you need to adjust this ball **** so it goes lower test it out, flush your toilett and wait till the water drains then when its supposed to come back up push down on the ball **** and youll see the water will start to fill, so then adjust the little screw on the fill valve (the other side of the floater where its attached)

you may need to shut off your water supply and drain your tank depending on how skilled you are,

pretty simple work, if you have questions feel free to ask.
