WHEN USING END CAPS, SUBTRACT 1/1 Fig. 7 GAP SIDE JAMB RECEIVER OR RECEIVER MEASURE FROM THIS EDGE NOSING STEP #1: SILL DRIP OR NOSING PREPARATION See Figs. 6 and 7. Projecting legs are extruded into the top surface, to attach the sill nosing or drip to the frame nosing. On the area overhanging either side of the sill, these legs will interfere with the side expanders and receivers. The legs must be removed from both ends before installing the drip or nosing. For both projected sill nosings, the distance to be removed equals the width of the side trim used minus the width of the end cap - 1/1 (2). For the traditional sill nosing, the sill drip, and the sill extender, the distance to be removed equals the width of the side trim used. Take measurements from the innermost edge of the accessory groove in the frame nosing. Use tin snips or rotary grinder to remove the legs, then file flush. 9/1 Fig. 1 Fig. 2 Traditional Sill Sill Drip Nosing 9/1 STEP #2: ATTACHING ANY SILL DRIP OR ANY NOSING See Figs. 1 to 5. Apply sealant into the kerf on the underside of the extruded aluminum sill. Center the sill drip or nosing, leaving an equal amount of overhang on each side. Insert the sill drip or nosing front leg into the kerf on the front of the sill frame nosing. Swing the sill drip or nosing up and press the back leg into place. 1/2" 1/2" For the 1-5/ Projected Sill Nosing See Fig. 8. The 1-5/ (41) projected sill nosing requires end caps.

Using a 5/32" (4) diameter drill bit, pre-drill holes 2-1/4" (57) in from the front edge of the sill extender, towards the interior of the opening. Locate the holes horizontally 2" (51) from each end, towards the center of the unit. If the unit width is between 32" (813) and 59" (1499), drill one additional hole at the center of the sill extender. For larger units, drill additional holes at 2 (686) on center, along the sill extender. Fasten with #6 x 5/ (16) phillips pan head stainless steel screws through the sill extender, up into the extruded sill. STEP #3: RECEIVER PREPARATION A trim receiver must be installed first, when using any frame expander. This includes the standard size frame expanders: 1" (25), 2-1/2" (64), 4" (102), (152), and (178), as well as any custom or cut-to-fit expanders.! CAUTION: When the frame expander is pressed into position, there must be a gap between the top of the frame expander and the top of the trim receiver kerf. This gap will allow for expansion and contraction. The side trim receivers must be cut at the bottom to follow the slope of the sill drip or nosing. Cut these pieces at a 5 angle with the back being higher (shorter) than the front. For the frame expander, relieve the leg; it is not necessary to angle the long, flat area of the frame expander. Notch the leg of the head frame expander at both ends, to clear the side frame receivers. STEP #4: ATTACHING RECEIVERS FLAT PROFILE See Figs. 10 and 11. Cut the top corners of the trim receiver at a 45 angle. To draw these corners together tightly, use the supplied aluminum corner angles. Slide the angle down between the two small guide legs and the outermost edge of the trim receiver. Pre-drill holes in both the head and side, using a 5/32" (4) drill bit.locate holes 3/4" (19) from the front edge and 5/ (16) from the side edge. Fasten with #6 x 5/ (16) phillips pan head stainless steel screws.

Fasten the trim receiver to the exterior wall surface using only aluminum or galvanized nails 1-1/2" (38) or longer, to penetrate through the flashing, the exterior sheathing, and into the framing. Nail 4" (102) from each end and 1 (457) on center between. PROFILE See Fig. 11. Cut the top corners of the trim receiver at a 45 angle. Pre-drill holes using a 5/32" (4) drill bit. Locate holes at 7/ (22) from the front edge and 5/ (16) from the side edge. The groove can be used as a guide for hole placement. Drill holes in both the head and the side trim receivers. Fasten with #6 x 1-1/4" (32) or 1-1/2" (38) phillips flat head stainless steel screws. See Fig. 14. Fasten the trim receiver to the exterior wall using Option 1 or Option 2. Option 1 This option requires a nailing fin. If the nailing fin is not already attached, press it firmly into the kerf in the top of the trim receiver. Use only aluminum or galvanized nails, 1-1/2" (38) or longer, to penetrate into the framing. Nail 4" (102) from each end, and 1 (457) on center between. Option 2 Shim between the flashing and the backband trim receiver with standard 1X nominal size lumber - 3/4" (19) actual size. Pre-drill holes using a 11/64" (4) drill bit. Use the V groove in the screw recess area of the backband trim receiver to position the drill bit. Locate the holes 4" (102) from each end and 1 (457) on center between. Fasten with #8 x 1-1/2" (38) or longer phillips flat head stainless steel screws. STEP #5: INSTALLATION OF See Figs. 12 to 14. Apply a generous bead of sealant on the back leg of the trim receiver. Angle the frame expander and slide it up into the slot where the sealant was placed. Swing the bottom into place and press to fit tightly. If necessary, use a rubber mallet to tap into place, protecting the trim with a piece of scrap board. STEP #6: COMPLETING THE EXTERIOR See Figs. 13 and 14. Apply a backer rod between the siding and trim receiver. Apply a generous bead of sealant over the backer rod in the gap as shown. Do not seal the front face of the side frame expander or trim receiver to the sill, to allow moisture to weep out.
