5. Choose either the right or
left side panel, whichever
DOES NOT require plumbing.
Each side panel has three wall
mounting knobs which inter-
lock with the companion fac-
tory installed wall mounting
clip. The side panel must be
positioned so that the wall
mounting knobs slide into,
and interlock with, the wall
mounting clips. To accommo-
date this initial fit, raise the
side panel approximately one
to two inches above the back
panel.

NOTE: It is suggested that the filler spout and valve be located
within the area indicated in figure above. Use a drill and a hole
cutting bit, or a hole saw to cut your holes per manufacturer's rec-
ommendations. Drill or cut from the finished side of panel. For
best results, place a scrap of wood beneath hole to be cut. Trial fit
using the same procedures as the other side panel.

ing outlets (valves, tub spout,

gest that you make a tem-

position your side panel over
plumbing outlets. Transfer
measurements to panel.

7. The wall mounting knobs
of the side panel will interlock
with the wall mounting clips
of the back panel.
Final Fit
Anchor the side panels by drilling a 3/16" pilot hole through
each vertical and horizontal flange on both side panels. Use
drywall screws to secure side panels to the studs.
To achieve a tight fit along the back wall, it may be necessary
to shim between back wall and stud wall. Drill a 3/16" pilot
hole through the horizontal flange on back wall. Secure back
panel with drywall screws.
Care and Cleaning
This product is made of Veritek, a Natural Gloss Composite.
Finish is stain resistant; however, the finish requires reasonable
care. Wash regularly with warm water; use soft cloth with mild
liquid detergent such as Top Job, Ajax Liquid Cleaner, or
Mr. Clean All-Purpose Cleaner. Remove hard water stains or
mineral build up with scale removers such as Lime-Away. Never
use abrasive scouring powders, cleaners or pads. They will dull
the finish. Protect finish with any fiberglass wax or automotive
paste wax.

8. The lower outside edge of
the side panel must fit flush
against the top ledge of the
bathtub. The upper inside fit
of side panel to back wall
must also be flush. It may be
necessary to remove the nail
which was bent over the back
wall flange for temporary sup-
port.
