Installation Notes

.

Unpack your unit carefully. Lay out and identify all parts using the instruction sheets as a
reference. Before discarding the carton, check for any small hardware bags.

.

If any parts are damaged or missing, refer to the description noted in the instructions when
contacting your dealer for replacements.

.

Please wear safety glasses whenever drilling or cutting.

Drill

Mallet

.

Handle the glazed panels carefully; tempered glass is dicult to break, but the sharp corners
of the panels can damage tile and oor coverings.

.

Before installing, check the tub rim for level and both walls for plumb. If either are out of
plumb more than 3/8”, you may want to contact your dealer for tapered llers which can be
used to level tub track or plum the side jambs.

Caution: Tempered glass cannot be cut or drilled

1.

SETTING the TUB TRACK with VINYL

Step 1a.

.

Measure from wall-to-wall, 1/2” above the sill and
cut the tub track (A) 1/16” short of these dimensions.

Step 1b.

.

Position the tub track in the center of the tub rim with
the tall leg facing the exterior. It may be necessary to le a
radius on the ends of the tub track and wall jambs to match
the corners of the tub.

Step 1c.

.

Press both wall jambs (B) into position over the tub track.
Masking tape can be used to temporarily hold parts in place.

MARKING for WALL JAMB

Step 2a.

.

Use a level to plumb both wall jambs (B), then mark the
pre-drilled hole locations on the wall. You can use a center punch
or pencil.

.

Lightly mark along both sides of the tub track (A) with a pencil.
Remove all parts and drill the walls using a 3/16” drill bit (for tile or
marble use 3/16” masonry bit). Insert wall anchors (C) into holes.

Note: Attachments to berglass or acrylic can be made in two ways:

if reinforcement is built into the wall of the unit, drill six 1/8” diameter
holes and install the screws directly into the reinforcement.

If wall is not reinforced, drill 3/16” holes and install
plastic wall anchors (C).

SECURING the TUB TRACK

Step 3a.

.

Before replacing tub track (A), force a slight downward
bow in the middle of extrusion. This will ensure that the track
ts tight to the tub.

.

Run two beads of silicone inside the penciled mark on the tub rim.
Place the stay clean sill in the exact position you marked in step 2a
and set it rmly in the silicone.

.

Silicone the end where stay clean sill (A) meets the wall.

.

Replace wall jamb (B) and attach to wall with #8 X 1 1/2” screws (D).
Do not over tighten jamb screws.

4.

FITTING the TUB HEADER

Step 4a.

.

Measure from wall-to-wall at top of the wall jambs, subtract 1/16”
from this dimension and cut the tub header (E) to its nished
length. Set the header in place over the top of the wall jambs (B).

INSTALL the GLASS PANELS

Step 5a.

.

To install panels, attach the four nylon roller bearings (J) to
the door panels using four #6-32 X 3/8” hex head screws (I)
centered in the slots in the top ns. Patterned glass is always
installed with the rough surface of the glass to the exterior of
the unit.

Step 5b.

.

To set slider glass in place, hold interior panel inside of
tub, insert rollers up into header and lower into roller track.

Step 5c.

.

Next, insert lower end of exterior slider panel in front of interior
slider panel by pushing lower ends far enough in to allow
clearance on inside edge of tub. Avoid roller-to-roller contact while
lifting panel into place.
