Thank you for purchasing the Archangel.
Please study these instructions carefully before assembly and installation and check all supplied parts immediately upon receipt.
Installation Tips:
The general principle of assembly is to assemble parts in the steps shown-first a dry assembly to check
fits or mark cutting or drilling positions and then a final assembly with silicone.
If a shower tray is used, ensure that it is level in all directions before installation.
Use a good quality, full length spirit level to ensure that the wall channel is perfectly upright.
