fastened to the interior stud/block, install the screws as

Caution: Ensure use of low pressure polyurethane window and door insulating
foams and strictly follow the foam manufacturer’s recommendations for
application. Use of high pressure foams or improper application of the foam may
cause the window frame to bow and hinder operation.

INTERIOR SEAL

A.
Apply insulating foam sealant.
From the interior, insert
the nozzle of the applicator into the space between the
window and the rough opening approximately 1" past
the edge of the frame (and past the jamb extensions)
and apply a 1" deep bead of foam. This will allow room
for expansion of the foam and will minimize squeeze
out. Apply sealant across the interior surface of the
shims to create a continuous seal. Follow foam
manufacturer's instructions.
Note: DO NOT place any foam between jamb
extensions and the rough opening.
Note: DO NOT completely fill the space from the
back of the fin to the interior face of the opening.
