Installation Procedure

1. Clean the work surface thoroughly to ensure optimal adhesion or assembly. 2. Precisely measure and mark the desired cut lines on the brass sheet using a scribe or marker. 3. Carefully cut the brass sheet to the specified dimensions using appropriate metal cutting tools, such as a hacksaw or metal shears. 4. Deburr all cut edges to prevent sharp points and ensure a smooth finish.
