Installing the Starter Course
Run the rst layer of the starter course all the way to the
outside corner (see gray shingles in Figure 4). Align the
top of the rst corner piece to the starter 1/2" offset line
and secure to wall (Figure 5).
Installing Remaining Courses
Work the corner weave up both sides at the same time
as the adjacent shingle pieces are coursed. Continue to
work toward the opposite corner of the wall (Figure 6). A
partial shingle may be necessary to complete the course
(see Figures 7). Maintain correct width, exposure and
keyway spacing when tting partial shingles into the inll
(Figure 8).
ProTips™: Not all walls are perfectly square.
Screws can provide temporary assistance.
Screws can be used as an alternative to staples
or nails. Screws offer exibility in making
adjustments to the corner position to get the best
appearance prior to permanently fastening with
nails or staples. Use stainless steel #6 (bugle or
truss) head 1-1/2" long screws.
