upport (i.e. wooden battens, baseboards or similar) should be fitted to
the shower tray underside. These can also be used for smaller shower trays
for additional support if required.

rackets (C) fixed to the shower tray and crew the remaining ounting
b s m
brackets (C), as feet, onto the threaded leg tubes (D). Adjust the height of the

4 If using a shower tray with a built in tiling upstand, allowance must be made
for recessing the tray into adjacent walls to allow tiling down onto the tray
surface. With the shower tray in position and adjusted to expected height,
mark around top edge and bottom edge of the shower tray onto the
adjoining walls and recess the walls to accept the sides of the shower tray
allowing 10mm above and below the shower tray for possible adjustment
(See Figs 3-4).
Note! When installing or considering recessing any shower tray into adjacent
walls, please ensure that your chosen enclosure is compatible with the
remaining dimension of the tray.
5 Eight panel clips (F) and sixteen screws (G) are supplied for securing the
fi
panels (A or B). These MUST be evenly spaced and xed onto the base of
the shower tray for the ResinLite (See Fig 5 on page 5) or on the floor
( c t s
See Fig 7 on page 5) in all other ases, using he 12mm crews (G) adjacent
T o
the panel sides of the installation. he open end f the clips (F) should fit flush
to the sides of the shower tray (See Fig 5 & 8 on pages 5), adjust the open
end of the panel clips (F) using pliers to accept the panels (A & B) under
light tension.
Note! The shower tray should be levelled on the top rims only, as the tray has a built
in fall for adequate drainage (See Fig 4a & 4b).

marked line (See Fig 7), adjust the open end of the panel clips using pliers to accept
the panels under light tension.
