It is easier to check alignment of studs and pan without the drain installed into the pan. Place the pan in the planned position. Check to see that the
spacing between the metal pan flange and 2 x 4 studs are flush. Some shimming or sanding of the 2 x 4 studs may be required to flush the studs with the
metal pan flange. When screwing in the 1/2” cement board the metal flange will pull fast to the studs, and will secure the metal pan in place. (diagram 1)
