B. Install Ceramic Floor Rail
The Vintage Ceramic Floor Rail is for use with a free-
standing Vintage Bath. However, the bath must be
installed before the ceramic floor rails.
Please see Installation Instructions for properleg
adjustment procedure.
Also, it is recommended that the flooring and the
plumbing be completed before the installation of the
floor rail. The bath should be leveled at a height that
provides clearance between the top of the ceramic floor
rail and bottom of the bath.
CAUTION: The bath must be supported by
the cast iron legs, not the ceramic floor rails.

Position Floor Rails on Site.
Create Floor Rail Template.
Application of Adhesive to Floor Surface/Floor
Rail Bottom.
NOTE:
Position floor rails so
there is an equel space between bath skirt and all
eight floor rails. The ends of each floor rail are
connected by a 1/8 grout joint. The eight curved
floor rails are identical, so their order of installation
is not critical.
Trace the outside
edge of each floor rail with a pencil. Mark location of
joints with a line that extends beyond the traced
outside edge of each floor rial. Remove floor rails.
Measure in 3-3/4 from traced outside edge and
mark another line. This will establish the area in
which the floor rails will be located.
Per manufacturer
instructions, apply
adhesive to traced area on the floor or bottom
surface of each floor rail. Apply adhesive to within 1
of outside edge of floor rail. This will avoid excess
adhesive build up.
Use only adhesive that is appropriate for use
with existing flooring.
