Page 8: Upstand Top Trim Installation
405-INST-UK-001 v1.0 – 09 Jul 2020 Upstand Top Trim Installation Begin by cutting the upstand top trim to the lengths required for all sides of the upstand. The corner joints can either be mitred (45°) or straight cut with notches (see image below). If the material requires bending to suit the pitch of the upstand, this can be achieved by screwing the section to the upstand as below and gently tapping the horizontal part using a clean rubber mallet. -
Page 9: Fitting The Lifting Equipment
The lifting frame is usually (but not always) attached to the product prior to dispatch. Once the product is installed, please return the lifting equipment to Glazing Vision. The lifting frame is fully configurable and will fit any size of product. Use Glazing Vision’s drawing of the lifting frame to assist with identifying parts and how they fit together. -
Page 10: Installation Procedure
405-INST-UK-001 v1.0 – 09 Jul 2020 Installation Procedure Step 1 Remove all packaging from the product including polyfoam glass protection and low tack tape. When removing the packaging, try to keep it intact as much as possible, so that after installation it can be re-used to protect the product until project completion and final handover. - Page 11 Once satisfied that everything is correctly positioned, carefully release the weight of the product. Remove the crane and lifting frame. Once the product is installed, please return the lifting equipment to Glazing Vision. Step 5 Drill Ø3 mm pilot holes into the upstand through the pre-drilled holes in the product’s framework (concealed by the clip on cover).
- Page 12 Voltage adjustment is via a screw potentiometer accessed through the front cover (remove small plastic plug first). The PSU is external to the Xvent and can be mounted some way from the product, possibly resulting in a slight volt drop. This is a common reason for a slightly lower voltage at the battery terminals and requires adjusting.
