GLASS SIZING AND INSTALLATION

3.2 a. Set glass in opening. Ensure that glass bite is equal on all sides. CAUTION: Be certain that glass is

placed firmly against interior spacer gasket to ensure a proper seal and to avoid binding of the glass on

the setting block.

b. Temporarily hold glass in the opening with WW-333 temporary glazing retainers & FS-325 screw.

Torque the FS-325 screw to 90 in-lbs.

-WW-333 temporary glazing retainers must be applied at each glass edge 3" from the corner (minimum

of 8 per lite). Glass edges greater than 4' in length but less than 8' require an additional retainer at the

glass mid-span.

-Retainers are intended for short term use only. Additional retainers may be required to withstand full

design wind load pressures.

-Full length pressure plates must be installed if severe weather or high wind loads are anticipated.
