IMPORTANT NOTES

1. ALL MATERIAL TO BE SUPPLIED IN STOCK LENGTHS. ALUMINUM RETAINER IN LENGTHS UP TO 20'-0" AND ACROVYN COVERS IN

LENGTHS UP TO 10'-0". THIS MATERIAL IS TO BE FIELD CUT USING QUALITY EQUIPMENT TO INSURE THAT ALL CUTS ARE SQUARE.

WHEN CUTTING MATERIAL SECTIONS, CS RECOMMENDS USING AN 80-100 TOOTH CARBIDE TIPPED SAW BLADE OR EQUIVALENT,

TO MINIMIZE CHIPPING AND MAINTAIN JOINT ALIGNMENT.

2. ALL DIMENSIONS ARE TYPICAL.

3. FOR DRYWALL/PLASTER WALL CONSTRUCTION, IT IS RECOMMENDED FOR FASTENERS TO BE ENGAGED INTO METAL/WOOD

STUDS TO MAINTAIN MAXIMUM PULLOUT STRENGTH. IF DURING INSTALLATION YOU ENCOUNTER SPECIAL WALL CONDITIONS

THAT DO NOT ALLOW FOR ATTACHMENT FOR DIRECT ATTACHMENT TO THE STUDS PLEASE CONSULT THE LOCAL AUTHORITY

HAVING JURISDICTION.

4. MATERIAL MUST REACH 65°F MIN. TO 75°F MAX. 24 HOURS PRIOR TO INSTALLATION. THIS IS ESSENTIAL TO MINIMIZE EXPANSION

AND CONTRACTION OF MATERIAL.

1. ALL FLUSH MOUNTED CORNER GUARDS ARE SHIPPED WITH

CUT-TO-LENGTH ALUMINUM RETAINERS WITH FACTORY

DRILLED HOLES IN THE RETAINER.

2. WHEN INSTALLING THE GYPSUM BOARD OR PLASTER,

CONSULT THE CHART ON PAGE 5 TO DETERMINE THE

SETBACK DISTANCE TO PROVIDE A SNUG FIT WHEN THE

RETAINER IS INSTALLED.

3. ALIGN EACH RETAINER WITH THE CORNER AND SECURE

EACH LEG THROUGH THE WALL INTO THE METAL/WOOD

STUDS USING THE SPECIFIED FASTENERS. MAKE SURE

THE RETAINER REMAINS PLUMB WITH THE FINISH FLOOR.

NOTE: FOR SINGLE LAYER DRYWALL UNITS WITH STUDS WIDER

THAN 3 5/8" OR DOUBLE GWB APPLICATIONS, THE BASE, TOP

CAP AND ASSOCIATE PARTS HAVE BEEN FACTORY SPLIT. THE

SNAP-ON BASE AND TOP CAP HAVE BEEN WELDED TO

ACCOMMODATE THE EXTRA WIDTH. THE ACROVYN GASKET IS

SHIPPED IN PARTS, WITH EXTRA PIECES INCLUDED, SO THE

INSTALLER CAN FABRICATE A WORKABLE GASKET.

4. INSERT ALUMINUM BASE CLOSURE AT THE BASE OF THE

RETAINER AND SECURE THE ACROVYN GASKET ON TOP.

ALIGN GASKET WITH OUTSIDE EDGE.

5. A 1" [25.4mm] CLOSURE CAP IS TO BE INSTALLED AT TOP OF

RETAINER ON PARTIAL HEIGHT GUARDS. FOLLOWING

PROCEDURES SIMILAR TO STEP 4.

6. APPLY 2" [50.8mm] JOINT TAPE ALONG THE EDGE OF THE

DRYWALL AND THE ALUMINUM RETAINER. FINISH THE

INSTALLATION BY APPLYING A UNIFORM FEATHERED JOINT

AT THIS LOCATION AS PER STANDARD CONSTRUCTION

PRACTICES. ALLOW TO DRY AND THEN SAND AS

REQUIRED. APPLY ADDITIONAL COATS, AS REQUIRED, TO

PROVIDE A UNIFORM AND NEAT FINISH. APPLY THE

PROCEDURE TO ANY "CLOSURE CAPS" USED ON PARTIAL

HEIGHT INSTALLATIONS.

7. FINISH WALL SURFACE AS SPECIFIED. BE SURE THAT THE

SELECTED FINISH IS APPLIED TO THE INSIDE SURFACE OF

THE REAR "CONTOURED" PORTION OF THE ALUMINUM

RETAINER.

8. APPLY A SINGLE THICKNESS OF FOAM TAPE ONTO BOTH

CORNERS AND A DOUBLE THICKNESS ALONG CENTER OF

ALUMINUM RETAINER.

NOTE: IF THE RETAINER HAS BEEN SPLIT, APPLY THE CENTER

TAPE ALONG ONE EDGE OF THE SPLIT.

9. FINISH INSTALLATION BY SNAPPING THE ACROVYN COVER

ONTO THE RETAINER.
