Step 1: - Align the metal installation guide tool (included) with the truss or rafter, and
drive the tip of the Strong-Drive SDWC to engage the threads.
Step 2: - While continuing to drive the SDWC, “drop” the fasteners head into the guide
channel to ensure optimal installation angle of 22.5º. The installation angle range is
10º-30º (see detail 1a). Once the installation angle is established, the metal installation
guide tool may be removed.
Step 3: - Drive the SDWC until the head of the fastener is fully countersunk into the
double to plate. Verify that the entire shank of the fasteners is installed into a wood
member.
