wall panel and carefully trace the outline of the

WARNING
Dust Hazard
When cutting or drilling the Swanstone
product, use a dust collection method
which prevents dust particles from
going into the air. Always work in a well-ventilated area.
Always use an OSHA approved dust mask when cutting,
drilling, or sanding Swanstone products.
IMPORTANT NOTICE
All cutouts for notches or accessories should have
rounded corners (sharp corners can promote stress
cracks).
The cutout for the seat is a complicated cut and requires
precise accuracy to ensure a proper fit that will be
resistant to leaking.

10. Cut the panel using a sabre saw with a bi-metal
blade (14 teeth per inch).

Do not discard the cutoff piece from the back panel. It will
be used later in the installation.
11. Dry fit the back panel, and make any necessary
adjustments. Temporarily secure the back panel to
the wall in order to properly fit the front and rear
panels.
DO NOT force a panel to fit a bowed or curved wall as it
may break; furthermore, the resiliency of the panel can
break the silicone bond to the wall surface.
