2.6.1 Installing the Screens
Start in the middle of the bottom row and work outward and upward.
First
1. Be sure the wall of Margays is straight and the
corners are square. Measure the diagonals of the
whole wall. If the diagonals are equal, the wall is a
perfect rectangle.
2. The screen supports should be installed on the
bottom row of Margays.
Then
3. Start in the middle of the bottom row and install
that screen.
a. Pull the screen rails all the way out on both
sides of the Margay chassis.
b. The screen rails have a large pin and the
screens have an L-shaped slot.
c. With one person holding each side of the
screen, hang the screen on the rail so the pin
goes into the slot.
4. Slide the screen closed, lifting it slightly so the
screen won’t scrape on the screen support below.
Next
5. Install the screens to the left and right of the cen-
ter to complete the bottom row.
a. After you add a screen, press it toward the cen-
ter.
6. Install the screens above the center screen.
a. Left each screen and you press it in so it doesn’t
scrape on the screen below.
b. Continue until you reach the top.
7. Check the line of this bottom row of screens. If
they are not straight, use shims on the top of the
screen support until the screens are straight.
8. Complete the second row, working outward and
pressing the screens inward after they are pressed
home.
9. Working upward and outward, finish all the rows.
Final adjustment
Check all the screens for alignment with each
other. The lines between screens should form straight
lines where they intersect.

The four corners
should meet like
