PREPARING INSTALLATION OF WALL BRACKETS
IMPORTANT GENERAL INFORMATION
This unit is best installed by two people.
Cover drain with tape prior to installation to prevent the loss of small parts.
Unpack your unit carefully and inspect for freight damage. Lay out and identify all parts using Box
Contents and Assembly Drawing as a reference. Before discarding the carton check to see that no
small hardware parts have fallen to the bottom of the box. If any parts are damaged or missing refer to
the description noted in the instructions when inquiring about replacements.
Handle the glass panels carefully and protect the edges. Although tempered glass is very resistant to
breakage the glass can still break if unequal pressure is applied during installation and the sharp corners
of the panel can damage tile and flooring surface.
Be sure to wear safety glasses whenever drilling or cutting. When drilling holes in ceramic tile or marble
use a center punch and hammer to carefully break the glazed surface. This will prevent skidding
when drilling.
NOTE: TEMPERED GLASS CANNOT BE DRILLED, CUT OR MODIFIED.
