A.) THIS BATH MUST BE SUPPORTED ALONG IT'S ENTIRE BOTTOM. We recommend the use of mortar as bedding
material (sand is not recommended). Apply enough bedding to support the complete bottom of the bath. After the bedding
has been poured, and before it sets, position the bath within the recess until the rim is leveled against the leveling
stringers. The rim of the bath MUST NOT support weight. Allow the bedding material to completely harden before applying
weight to the rim or bottom of the bath.
C.) Any finish material such as tile or wallboard must be self-supporting if it contacts the deck of the bath.
Flooring will be butted against the bottom of the tub apron, also holding the tub in place.
B.) Check level front to back and side to side, shim as necessary. To secure the tub to wood studs, use drywall screws with
flatwashers or roofing nails immediately above the flange of the bath. To secure the tub to steel studs, use 4" (102mm)
drywall screws and flatwashers. (see Fig. 6)
