INSTALL SILL SUPPORTS
Assemble the sill supports. Do not fully
tighten the spacer mounting screws at this
time.
Before attaching the sill supports, place
them on the window stool. Select the spacer
position that will place the spacer near the
outermost point on the sill. Tighten the
spacer mounting screws.
Turn the bolts and tighten the lock nuts to make
the sill supports level or tilt down 1/8
″
to the
outside. Line up the “V” notch with 12

±

″
marks.
Drill pilot holes and attach the sill supports.
N
OTES:
•
On narrow sills, there may not be enough room to
use the lock nut.
•
A deep offset sill may require a longer adjusting
bolt than the standard hex head bolt provided.
•
On wood sills use the large washer between the
bolt head and the sill. This prevents the bolt from
digging into the wood.
