Sterling Plumbing Bath and Wall Surrounds 6103 Series - Manual (Page 20)

Secure the Bath
Secure the Apron
Drill two 1/16 ″ (2 mm) pilot holes through each apron flange and into a stud.
Fasten the flanges to the stud using roofing nails or non-tapered flathead screws.
NOTE: If the apron flanges have broken off from the apron, ensure that the apron is
held in place by the wooden blocks (previously installed). If a baseboard will be
installed at the apron, drill pilot holes and fasten the apron to the wooden blocks.
Attach the Bath to the Studs
NOTE: The bath can be attached using the clips (provided), roofing nails, or
non-tapered flathead screws. Ensure the roofing nails or non-tapered flathead screws
are galvanized or plated.
Verify the studs are within 1/8 ″ (3 mm) of the bath at the recommended clip or
roofing nail locations. Shim if necessary.
For clip attachment (1):
Refer to the ″Roughing-In″ section for recommended clip locations.
At the side of the stud, position the bottom lip of the clip under the flange of the
bath, as shown.
Slide the clip into place between the center of the stud and the bath.
Use a pliers to bend the tab of the clip over the bath flange.
Repeat these steps for the remaining clips.
Secure the clips to the studs with roofing nails or non-tapered flathead screws.
Use caution to avoid hitting the bath with a hammer.
