the threshold at 3/8" from the back fastening flange. Run
the bead of silicone the entire length of the base and 1''
on the side wall will be installed on as well.
Lift and place back wall (14) directly over the silicone wi-
thout sliding. Verify that the back wall (14) is plumb, shim
if needed. Then, secure the back wall to the wall studs at
top with #8 x 1¾" screws (not included) in the previously
drilled holes.

the stud and the X fastener.
