B. HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
NOTICE: Steps B. and C. are necessary for making your Kohler Whirlpool operate more quietly.
If the subfloor is level, no adjustment is necessary; proceed to Step C. If the subfloor is not level, shim beneath pump bracket (plywood is recommended). Do not change the elevation of the pump relative to the whirlpool bath since this may affect performance. Use a 5 x 7 (minimum) piece of plywood.
C. SECURE WHIRLPOOL
Using four 1/4” x 1” lag screws, secure pump bracket to subfloor. Predrilling is recommended.
CAUTION: Risk of product damage. Do not use the piping or pump for structural support or positioning of whirlpools.
Use a 1/2” wrench to remove the long bolt securing the bracket to the bath.
D. INSTALL PLUMBING
CAUTION: Risk of damage to whirlpool bottom and subfloor. Ensure watertight seal on bath drain connections.
