Metal cam in "open" pivot shoe |
Using a regular straight screwdriver, turn the metal cam in the pivot shoe so the cam slot is horizontal or in the unlocked position. Using the screwdriver, position the left side 3 inches above the top of the sill and rotate the cam so the cam opening is at the top. This activates the brake and the shoe will remain in this position. Repeat on right side. |
|
Hold the sash in a horizontal position and locate the sash tilt pins into the metal cams in the pivot shoes. Make certain they are engaged completely. |
|
Once both tilt pins are in metal cams in the pivot shoe the sash should be level and horizontal. Using two hands tilt the sash upward into the operational position. Make sure both tilt release buttons on the top corners of the sash are completely engaged. |
| Holding the sash horizontally or parallel to the floor can allow the sash to come out of its pivot shoe while cleaning. Please see Tilt-In Cleaning Directions | |
