2.6 Installing and Removing Screens

2.6.2 Opening or Removing a Screen

Removing a screen from a single Margay standing alone is not a problem. Simply grasp the sides of the screen and pull forward sharply. The spring latches will pop loose.

Removing a screen from a Margay in a wall is more exacting, because the screens are so close together.

On the opposite page, look at the row of Margays. To remove a screen on the outside column in a wall, do not start at the outside edge. This seems the logi- cal place to start, but it will cause the outside screen to crunch against the next screen to the center.

Notice also that if you want to remove a screen in the middle of a wall, you should work from the out- side of the wall inward.

Hints

When pulling with the suction cup, always pull at a slightly up angle. This keeps the screen from scraping the screen below.

Place the suction cup puller near the corner of the screen.

Start at the outside and work in.

Never pull the “open” edge first.

CAUTION

When you pull the edges out, pull out only ½" (2 cm). That is enough to release the spring latches without harming the next screen.
