Screens - Spine Screen Trim
Assembly Instructions
In-Line Spacer Installation
Note:
All screens must be
mechanically connected together,
with all 10-wire rigid wireways and
screen-to-screen power connections
appropriately installed before adding
power infeed, or connecting infeed to
power source.
Note:
The power infeeds are to be
connected to the power source by
a qualified electrician who must
follow all state and local codes at the
building site and check the electrical
integrity of the finished system.
1. Per the space-planning layout,
determine the location for in-line
spacer. Make sure that the screens to
receive the spacer are near their final
location, and are plumb and level.
2. The two required screen connectors
come with eight molding clips
installed to each (shown uninstalled,
Figure 36), four on each side.
At each Spine Screen end, as
illustrated, position the screen
connector up against the vertical
frame channel of the Spine Screen,
with clips oriented as shown. Using
a firm hand, press at the mounting
clips on the screen connector, one at
a time to seat them into the vertical
frame channel at the end of the Spine
Screen (Figure 36 & Detail WW).
3. Position the spacer against the
vertical frame, with the side opening
as desired, and the top facing
upward. If the base spacer top is
higher than the top of the Spine
Screen's horizontal frame, the spacer
is too tall at the top and must be
squarely cut off from the bottom.
Cut required amount off the bottom,
then press the side of the spacer
with the molding clips in the vertical
frame channel on the Spine Screen
taking care to align the top of the
base infeed spacer with the top of
the screen's horizontal frame. Press
forcefully from inside the spacer,
to engage the screen connector/
clips of Spine Screen #1 into the
channel of the base infeed spacer.
Next, move Spine Screen #2 over to
align its installed screen connector/
clips with the appropriate vertical
spacer channel. Level and plumb
Spine Screen #2 to #1 by twisting the
height-adjustable glides clockwise or
counter-clockwise until the frame’s
vertical edges are aligned and tops of
screens are at the same height. Press
Spine Screen #2 into the vertical
spacer channel to engage such that
both Spine Screens are snapped into
the spacer (Figure 36 & Detail WW).
4. Confirm the spacer top cap is
labelled “I” on the underside for
inline. Place the spacer top cap onto
the base spacer. Align the mounting
hole on the side of the top cap with
the mounting hole in the spacer
cover channel and secure with a
#10-24 x

” Phillips flat head screw.
The spacer top cap will rest flush with
the flat aluminum top cap installed in
a later step (Figure 36 & Detail WW).
5. At the location specified for a
screen-to-screen jumper between
the spacer, route the jumper through
the pass-through ankles at each end
of the Spine Screen, then plug the
ends into each rigid wireway of the
powered Spine Screens (Figure 37).
6. On the rib side of the spacer cover,
space molding clips evenly apart and
press them onto the ribs of the cover
(Figure 37 & Detail VV).
7. Position the spacer cover with
molding clips up against the spacer
cover channel. Using a firm hand,
press on the spacer cover at the
molding clip locations to snap
molding clips into the spacer cover
channel (Figure 37 & Detail VV).
