everything needed to assemble this product. CONTACT YOUR LOCAL DISTRIBUTOR WITH
NOTIFICATION OF ANY MISSING OR DAMAGED PARTS. Contact must be made within ten days of

Only hand-tighten nuts & bolts on initial assembly. Final tightening should be done
EVENLY after final assembly when unit has been plumbed & leveled.
After assembly is complete, ANY ENDS OF BOLTS PROTRUDING BEYOND NUTS SHOULD BE CUT OFF
AND/OR PEENED OVER TO REMOVE ANY SHARP EDGES. Go over entire unit to file smooth any
sharp edges or projections that may have been caused by rough handling in shipping or

situations only one bolt is required. See specific assembly instructions.
On products with platforms install 1 – 2 degrees off level to facilitate water drainage.
