SETTING AND FASTENING THE WINDOW

AWNING/

CASEMENT

AWNING/CASEMENT

A.Insert the window and center it in the opening to allow clearance for shimming.

Note: Use of a suction cup on the glass will assist in handling the window.

Note: Each existing window frame and wall depth will vary in different applications; therefore there is not a standard measurement for the overhang of the window frame to the exterior or for the distance from the interior face of the window to interior trim. When performing Steps 4B thru 4D, installing the frame screws, be sure to keep the distance consistent all around the window.

4A NOTE

Note: On the exterior, there must be enough room for backer rod and 3/8" sealant bead.

B.Insert shims between the window and the opening at the top two anchor hole locations in the window jambs.

Keep shims back 1/2" from interior face of window.

Note: Position shims to ensure they allow at least 1/2" from the exterior surface of the window to allow for placement of backer rod and sealant.

C.Fasten the window near the top of the opening by driving 2-1/2" long wood screws through the top two holes at the jambs and into the opening sides.

D.Plumb and square the window. Insert shims between the window

frame and the rough opening at the anchor hole locations in the window

frame. Keep shims back 1/2" from	4E

E.Check the interior reveal. Make sure the measurement from the interior face of the window to the interior face of

the window to the interior face of the wall is equal at several points around the window.

F.If additional installation holes are needed; drill a 3/16" installation hole through both the interior and exterior walls of the frame.

G.Fasten the window in the opening by driving the 2-1/2" long screws through each pre- drilled hole in the window frame, through the shims and into the rough opening.
