FITTING THE SHOWER TO WALL

NOTE: The control knobs are an integral part
of the cover – do not attempt to remove them.

Unscrew the two top and one bottom
retaining screws (fig.4) and lift the cover from
the backplate.

After choosing the site for the shower, use the
backplate as a template and mark the two
fixing holes (fig.5). Drill and plug to suit the
fixing screws supplied.

Screw bottom fixing screw into position
leaving the base of the screw head protruding
6mm (0.25in) out from the wall.

Hook the backplate over the bottom screw
and fit the top fixing screw into position.
Do not fully tighten the screws at this stage, as
the fixing holes are elongated to allow for out
of square adjustment after the plumbing
connections have been completed.
