NAILING TAB INSTALLATION

A. Attach the nailing tabs to the corner posts using the 2 sheet metal screws sup-
plied. Secure through the centre of the top and bottom slots in the nailing tab and
then through the existing holes in the corner posts. If there are no existing holes,
follow these instructions:
B. To determine the fi nal location of the nailing tab you must fi rst determine the
