If needed use wooden shims between the studs and
the fastening ange to maintain the position of the
base.
FOR B3 BASES YOU MAY USE SHIMS UNDER
THE BASE TO LEVEL (UNDER THE BASE LEGS
IDEALLY)
With a 1/8" bit, drill holes in the fastening ange then
secure the base to all the wall studs with #8 x 1¾ "
screws (not included). Only pre-drill the flange not
the studs.

Lift the base. Place cement or wood shims under all legs to
support the shower base oor. Lower the shower base and
validate leveling and stability of the base on the oor. If needed,
use additional wood shims or cement.
We recommend that a plumber completes the drain pipe
connection.
