Install the drain on the bath according to the drain
manufacturer's instructions. When installing the drain
overflow tube and hood, be sure to adequately seal along
the edges of the hood to prevent leakage.
B. INSTALL WOOD FLOOR RAIL
Make sure all rough plumbing and finish flooring are
complete. Attach the floor brackets to the floor rail with
the screws provided.
Apply two beads of silicone sealant to the bottom surface
of the floor rail. Position the floor rail in the desired
location, and secure to the floor with the screws
provided.
Use at least four people to carefully lift the bath inside
the floor rail. Position the bath so there is equal space
between the bath skirt and the floor rail.
Insert the dowels in the ends of the floor rail. Apply
silicone sealant to the end rails, and press them
completely onto the dowels. Remove any excess sealant.
