1. SUPPLY ELBOW INSTALLATION

Apply plumber tape to threaded ends of 1/2" (13 mm) 
iron pipe nipple (not supplied) and thread into 
shower riser elbow so that nipple extends past the 
finished wall no more than 0.19" (4.8 mm) and no less 
than 1/16" (1.6 mm). Place the supplied installation 
gasket (1) behind the elbow (2). Screw the supply 
elbow onto the nipple making sure that the supply 
elbow outlet is in a downward facing position. 
Minimum diameter for hole is 1" (25 mm) with a 
maximum of 1 1/2" (38 mm). 
CAUTION: To avoid damage to the supply elbow or 
hose  finish  during  installation,  wrap  with  a  cloth  or 
tape and use only a smooth-jawed wrench. 
DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN CONNECTIONS.

3. WALL BAR INSTALLATION

Note: Hole size will be determined by your use of just the screw or 
anchor and screw for installation. Drill hole for mounting of bottom 
post. Start with a smaller drill bit size, 1/8" is recommended, and drill 
hole. If you hit a wall stud, go to next step. If you do not hit a wall stud, 
change to a drill bit size suitable for the anchors, 1/4" is recommended, 
and re-drill hole.
Anchors  are  for  use  on  drywall  or  tile.  For  fiberglass,  acrylic  and  flat 
plastic surfaces, use toggle bolts (not included).
Before drilling top mounting hole, it is recommended that you place 
the assembled slide bar and post assembly (1) on its side next to the 
hole locations you have marked. Make sure posts are pressed fully onto 
bar. Align center of bottom post with bottom hole that was just drilled 
and make sure center of top post aligns with mark for top hole. If not, 
re-mark top hole location. If it aligns, drill top hole in location as 
marked.

2. 

Mark the place for drilling the hole for the lower 

post. Mark using a level, in a vertical line from the 
lower hole, the placement of the upper post hole.
