1. Check Measurements.
 
2. Remove Screens.
 
3. Remove sash from frame:
  a. Insert handle into holes drilled in sash. Handle should point towards bottom of window.
[ see figure 3a ]
  b. Pull gently on the face plate (on the handle) & turn to one side - two screw holes become visible. [ see figure 3b-d ]
  c. Insert top screw and tighten (do not over-tighten). [ see figure 3b-d ]
  d. Turn handle 90 degrees and install lower screw. [ see figure 3b-d ]
  e. Return face plate to original position & turn handle to lock position.
  f. Tap top hinge pin down, then pull pin down (Note: pin will not fall out, there is a safety stop).
  g. Turn handle to open position and remove sash.
 
4. Insert nail flange into outer slot in frame. Bottom first, then sides, top last. [ see figure 4 ]
 
5. Center window in rough opening, shim window 3/8" from bottom sill for insulation. Make sure frame is perfectly square, level, and plumb (failure to do this can cause problems with the lock system).
[ see figure 5 ]
 
6. Fasten frame to building.
 
7. Reinstall sash in frame.
 
8. Check window in each position (locked, swing & tilt) for adjustments:
  a. Vertical Adjustments: On the bottom hinge, a phillips-head screw or a 4mm allen-key bolt will enable you to adjust up or down (clockwise up).
[ see figure 8a ]
  b. Lateral Adjustments: On the top of the sash, a phillips-head set bolt can be located for adjustments (counterclockwise draws sash toward hinge).
[ see figure 8b ]
 
9. Snap drain caps into the holes found on the bottom of the exterior frame.
