Attach the Bath to the Studs
NOTE: The bath can be attached using the clips (provided), roofing nails, or
non-tapered flathead screws. Ensure the roofing nails or non-tapered flathead screws
are galvanized or plated.
Verify the studs are within 1/8" (3 mm) of the bath at the recommended clip or
roofing nail locations. Shim if necessary.
For clip attachment (1):
Refer to the "Roughing-In" section for recommended clip locations.
At the side of the stud, position the bottom lip of the clip under the flange of the
bath, as shown.
Slide the clip into place between the center of the stud and the bath.
Use a pliers to bend the tab of the clip over the bath flange.
Repeat these steps for the remaining clips.
Secure the clips to the studs with roofing nails or non-tapered flathead screws.
Use caution to avoid hitting the bath with a hammer.
For roofing nail or non-tapered flathead screw attachment (2):
IMPORTANT! Position the roofing nail or non-tapered flathead screw above the bath
flange. Do not nail or drill through the bath flange.
Install roofing nails or flathead screws over the top of the bath flange at each stud
location, as shown. This will pin the bath flange to the studs.
