I'm installing a riser kit with my shower tray but unlike others I've seen my instructions dont say anything about securing the feet to the floor. Please advise.
 
i would normally theres holes in the feet just shove some short screws normally an 1 or 11/4"

Lots of them have no provision for screwing down, this is fine.

Adjust so that all feet are touching deflection free floor.

By the time you have siliconed the tray to the wall, then tiled and siliconed the tray to the tiles - trust me the tray is going nowhere. If you want you can run silicone/ stixall etc around the feet afterwards ( not necessary) - but don’t put anything flexible between the foot and the floor.
