B.Cut the balance cords on the bottom sash and lift out the sash. Allow weights to fall to the bottom of the weight pocket.

C.Remove the parting stops by prying them out or by pulling them out with a channel

lock. There may be a small wedge of wood at the bottom of the upper sash that is next to the parting stops. To make it easier to remove the parting stop, use a chisel to knock off the wedge.

allowing the balance weights to fall into the weight pocket. Remove the top sash.

E. Remove the balance cord pulleys. Unscrew and remove the balance cord pulleys. If the pulleys are press-in fit type, follow these steps:

1.Cut off accessible portions of the collars using a rotary cutting tool with cut-off wheel.

2.Bend up the remaining areas of the collars.

3.Knock the pulleys into the balance cavity. (The pin will fall with the pulleys.)

4.If desired, remove pulleys via bottom balance access panel.

NOTE: If the pulleys and pins are not removed, they may interfere with the replacement window’s attachment screws.

F.If desired, insulate the weight chamber by filling it with low pressure window and door insulating foam.

2PREPARE THE OPENING

A.Apply one piece of sill flashing tape to the sill of the existing window. Cut the tape the same length as the width of the existing window sill. Place one side of the tape against the vertical leg of the stool, and work the tape into the corner before applying to the sill. Press down firmly.DO NOT allow the flashing tape to extend past the blind stops.

B.Check to ensure the existing sill is level and not bowed (humped) upward. If necessary, place shims on the bottom of the window opening 1/2" from each side. Shim sill only at the jambs. Once level, attach shims to prevent movement.

Note: Improper placement of shims may result in bowed (humped) sill.
