NAILING TAB INSTALLATION
1)Attach the nailing tabs to the corner posts using the 2 sheet metal screws supplied. Secure through the centre of the top and bottom slots in the nailing tab and then through the existing holes in the corner posts.
If there are no existing holes, follow these instructions:
Position the nailing tab so that the front face is offset with the front edge of the corner post (approx. ½"). Centre the nailing tab vertically on the corner post.

sheet metal screws supplied. This allows the | ||

| |
framing. Figure 36b. |

2)To determine the fi nal location of the nailing tab you must fi rst determine the thickness of your fi nishing material (i.e. drywall). This will determine the dimension from the front edge of the corner post to the nailing tab. Once the nail- ing tab is in the desired location, drill through the centre hole of the nailing tab. Secure with a sheet metal screw*. Figure 36c.
* Additional set screws may be installed.
