A hydraulic rod is included that has a rounded end defining a ball, and the ball is rotatably retained in the cup such that the hydraulic rod is pivotable in the cup. A pedal housing is positionable on a floor adjacent to the toilet and the hydraulic rod slidably extends into the pedal housing. A first lever is pivotally coupled to the pedal housing and the first lever actuates the hydraulic rod to extend upwardly when the first lever is manipulated. A second lever is pivotally coupled to the first lever and a pedal is pivotally coupled to the pedal housing. The pedal is pivotally coupled to the second lever and the second lever manipulates the first lever when the pedal is stepped on for lifting the toilet seat.
