Installation Procedure

1. Prepare the fabrication area, ensuring it is clean, dry, and well-ventilated. 2. Carefully measure and mark the desired cut lines on the brass sheet using appropriate marking tools. 3. Utilize suitable cutting equipment (e.g., abrasive saw, waterjet, or plasma cutter) with correct settings for the 0.998" thickness to achieve precise dimensions. 4. Deburr all cut edges thoroughly to remove any sharp fragments and ensure a smooth finish for subsequent operations.
