7. Secure the Bath

Secure the shroud to the bath with a screw at each corner. Do not overtighten.

Make sure the foot clips are not in the locked position.

Carefully lift the bath into position so the posts on the bath frame ﬁt into the four foot clips, and the

drain tailpiece ﬁts into the drain pipe.

Check for solid ﬁt (no rocking) and a 24-1/8″(613 mm) rim corner height to the ﬁnished ﬂoor.

Lift and move the bath if needed, and adjust the four posts as needed to ensure a distance of

24-1/8″(613 mm) from the ﬁnished ﬂoor to the top of each bath rim corner. Adjust the bath levelers

as needed. Make sure the bath levelers and bath feet are tight.

Press down on the bath corners with your hand to make sure the bath does not move up and down,

or side to side. If the bath moves check that all four posts are inside the foot clips, and check that

the ﬂoor is level.
