Maintenance of the Friction Stay With a minimal amount of care and maintenance your CREALCO CASEMENT windows will stay looking good and performing superbly for many years to come - a valuable, long lasting asset giving continued satisfaction and pride. Basics of a Friction Stay A friction stay is a type of hinge that controls the opening of the window so that it will stay open at the width you decide to open it to, not closing under its own weight or being too difficult to open and close. Friction Stay Maintenance As the name implies, a friction stay needs a level of friction to operate correctly. Too much friction and the friction stay arms can be bent in operation and the window will be stiff and difficult to open. Too little friction and the window will not stay at its required level. Side Hung Casement Top Hung Casement Key to the correct sealing of the casement sash is the top alignment guide which maintains the friction stay in the closed and sealed position. If the shape of the guide is altered or flared it can result in poor sealing of the sash as well as incorrect alignment of the friction stay. Top Alignment Guide Shape Adjustment if required Track Maintenance Ensure that the track is free from dirt and debris which can alter the friction of the hinge. It is best not to add lubricants as this can alter the friction as well as collect more debris which can cause wear within the track. Friction Adjustment The hinge is factory set and may after continue use become loose. Should this occur using a small flat bladed screwdriver turn the screw on the friction hinge clockwise to increase the amount of friction. The same adjustment should be made to both the hinges on the window. Also should the window be stiff in operation turn the screw anti-clockwise until the desired result is achieved. Friction Adjustment Increase or decrease friction Track Cleaning when required Top Alignment Guide The top alignment guide can flare or distort due to a number of issues. For correct operation it is important to bend the alignment guide back into position. Correct Shape and Seating for Top Alignment Guide Straighten the Guide with pliers or suitable tool 2013 Wispeco (Pty) Ltd, All Rights Reserved 7

Typical Glazing Procedure Insert the pull-in vinyl gasket into glazing beads by sliding or pressing it into the groove (1). Before cutting gasket, ensure that it has not stretched and cut 6mm longer so that corners are in compression at all times. 1 Position bottom glazing bead in glazing bead rebate (2). Place glass on glazing blocks (3). Insert top and then side glazing beads ensuring that they are in correctly. Starting from top centre, insert roll in gasket (4) without stretching it (5). Stop 150mm from corner and partly cut gasket 6mm longer than the edge of the vertical bead. Insert gasket at corner and then roll in remaining 150mm. Repeat this on the other sides. Where gasket ends meet, cut gasket 6mm longer. Insert cut ends first and complete. 6mm GLASS 2 3 AND 4mm GLASS GLAZING BLOCK 3 ENSURE GASKETS ARE NOT STRETCHED AT ANY STAGE TOP SEEN FROM THE INSIDE START END NOTCH GASKET AT CORNERS 4 5 2013 Wispeco (Pty) Ltd, All Rights Reserved 41
Typical Glazing Procedure GLAZING 1. SELECTION OF GLAZING METHODS 1.1 SETTING AND LOCATION BLOCKS Glass-to-metal contact must be avoided at all times by using setting and location blocks having a hardness of 50 to 90 shore A durometer. Use only blocks made of Neoprene, EPDM, Silicone or other elastomeric material. Setting blocks are to have a minimum thickness of 3mm and must be at least 27mm in length per square metre of glass area. The position of the setting and location blocks is illustrated in Figure 2.
