Flat to floor step by step installation

Remove protective coating only from the immediate area’s surrounding the waste and those sides of the tray which will be against a wall. Fit the waste using manufacturers instructions. Ensure that the location of the shower tray is level and free of all debris before commencing installation.

Prepare a rigid base of 10mm marine plywood, incorporating a suitable recess or cut out for the waste and fix to floor ensuring that the finished base is level and free of debris.

Cover the marine ply base with a 15mm depth of weak cement mix (sand/cement ratio 5:1).

Place the shower tray with the fitted waste onto the cement bed and apply gentle pressure with the base of the hand to force the tray into position then finally level the tray and allow to set.

When shower tray is set remove the remainder of the protective film, connect the waste pipe and check for leakage.

Seal joints between tray and wall an anti- fungi silicon sealant and allow to set, cover the tray with a soft dust sheet.

Tile and seal joints with an anti-fungi silicon sealant and allow to set.

Raised step by step installation

Lay the tray in position on the prepared floor and scribe a pencil line around the outside edge as in FIG 1 to mark the position of the tray, this will form the guide for the floor clips.

Turn the tray over, note the raised circles in the base of the tray FIG 2, these are the feet location points, and the feet must be located into these points and only these points since they have been strategically placed to eradicate any flexing within the shower tray.

Apply the self-adhesive cylindrical pads around the bayonet fitting. Insert into location points on under side of tray, ensuring the panel fixing tabs are at 90° to the tray.

Once the panel clips have been fixed into position, the assembly should comply with FIG 4.

Fit the panel fixing rods, using a level. Ensure the face of the panel holder is lined up with the outside edge of the tray as shown in FIG 5.

When all feet have been fitted level them up so that the base of the foot measures 95mm from the underside edge of the outside wall of the tray.

Screw down the floor fixing clips so that the edge of the clip is in line with pencil line made in FIG 1. Use all the clips provided and spread them equal-distant along both open sides of the tray.

Turn the tray over and level both ways. When level fix the inaccessible legs with the silicon sealer or no nails type of adhesive. Do not fix the central leg at this point, screw the accessible legs to the floor, then adjust the central leg so that it forms a stabilizing point.

Mark the length of panel required for both edges and cut with a junior or standard hacksaw.

Please note on square and rectangle trays one length of panel has a return rebated end. Ensure that this end is included in the length required. Do not cut off and discard.

Fix the double-sided adhesive pads provided to the face of the panel holders. Fix the panels starting with the end panel or in the case of squares the panel with the rebated end by pushing firmly under the floor clips, then on to the adhesive pads and fix the front panel.

Your shower tray raiser kit is now complete. Finish the installation of the tray as per shower tray fitting instruction point 8.
