Ø Weld washers should generally be 6” (152 mm) apart and 4” (102 mm) from edge of plastic.
Ø Allow 1/8” (3 mm) between sections for plastic weld or silicone.
Ø Test piece in area before making the final cuts.
Ø Weld washers should be welded from the center towards the edges.

a. Set the plastic on the floor.
b. Place the wood blocks under the plastic. With the 1” Spade Bit, drill a pilot hole all the way through the plastic at the marked spots.
c. Remove the wood blocks so the plastic lays flat on the floor. Use the counter bore tool to drill out the holes until the flat part of the bit hits the floor. Be sure to leave a lip on the inside of the holes.
d. Put the liner in place for the install, and set the weld washers in the holes.e. Use a welder to weld the washers to the bed. Weld from the center of the plastic towards the edges to help prevent any ripples or high spots.
e. Allow the welds to cool. With the mallet, pound the liner plugs into the holes.

b. Cut plastic to dimensions of height and width.
c. Test to make sure piece fits into area, allow 1/8” (3 mm) for plastic weld or silicone.

Ø If coverstrips are used, measure down from the top 10” (254 mm)
