Then remove the roller access head track section (RHT).
See Step 0 on Sheet 6 of the Installation Manual.
Hang
sliding panels by inserting the carriers on each panel into
the opening in the head track in the proper sequence.
Make sure that the orientation of the guiding rollers of
the carriers on each panel is on the proper side. See the
custom product drawings for the correct orientation
(straight line with rollers on top of the elevation).
See also
Sheet 6 of the Installation Manual.
IMPORTANT:
IF THE GUIDING ROLLERS ARE NOT
ORIENTED CORRECTLY, THE PANELS WILL NOT
STACK PROPERLY.
Step B3
Install additional sliding panels, including any single/
double action sliding panels (Panel #3), in the same
manner.
Step B4
After you inserted all sliding panels, reinstall the
removable head track (RHT) and make sure that the
joints are aligned perfectly.
IMPORTANT:
DO NOT INSTALL ANY SINGLE/
DOUBLE ACTION END PANELS (NON-SLIDING),
YET.
Do not drill any additional holes for sockets,
pivot points and floor closers, yet!
CAUTION!
DO NOT USE THE CRANK HANDLE
TO DISENGAGE THE UPPER ARM OF THE
TOP RAIL OF ANY SINGLE/DOUBLE ACTION
SLIDING PANELS UNTIL ALL THE PANELS
AND LOCKING RECEIVERS OR SOCKETS ARE
INSTALLED AND IN PLACE. THE UPPER ARM
OF THE TOP RAIL HAS TO BE SECURED TO
THE HEAD TRACK VIA THE CONVERSION
BOX AND THE QUICK RELEASE LOCK ON THE
PIVOT SIDE HAS TO BE SECURED TO THE
SOCKET IN THE PIVOT BOX IN THE FLOOR
BEFORE THE SINGLE/DOUBLE ACTION
SLIDING PANEL CAN FUNCTION PROPERLY.
OTHERWISE, IT WILL NOT BE STABLE AND
CAN FALL AND HURT SOMEBODY.
C.
GAPS AND ADJUSTMENT
After inserting all the sliding panels, slide them to the
correct closed position and offset them to one another so
that any side protruding locking mechanism is not in the
way. See
Sheet 7 of the Installation Manual. Check
if all
panels are vertically straight and if you left enough space
for the single action end panel (non-sliding).
See Sheet 8
of the Installation Manual
. Between panels there should
be an even gap of 4 mm (about 5/32
"
) from top to bottom.
Any problems may be due to the head track not being
absolutely level. A difference of 1/16
"
or less in the level
of
the head track between the two corners of a panel can
cause a 1/4
"
shift of the panel from the vertical position
enough for a panel not to close properly.
The horizontal spacing between the bottom of a panel and
finish floor should be 7 mm (about 1/4
"
) consistently
across the width of the panel.
If the gaps are not correct, then adjust the upper track
by removing or adding shims above the head track as
needed. The upper track has to be perfectly level.
If there are still issues on the gap between panels and the
gap at the bottom not being correct, then the running
carriages can be adjusted. The carriages on the panels are
normally set from the factory to have a gap of 25 mm
(1
"
)
from the bottom of the head track to the top of the top
rail.
See Sheet 7 of the Installation Manual.
