Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Not verifying the surface is perfectly level before placement.Use a precision level to confirm the mounting surface is planar before positioning the sheet to prevent warping.
Applying uneven pressure during securing, leading to induced stress.Tighten fasteners incrementally and in a criss-cross pattern to distribute pressure evenly across the sheet.
