• Wood or steel backing must be provided for attaching HardieTrim

boards.

• A water-resistive barrier is required in accordance with local building code requirements. The water-resistive barrier must be appropriately installed with

penetration and junction flashing in accordance with local building code requirements. James Hardie will assume no responsibility for water infiltration. James

Hardie does manufacture HardieWrap

Weather Barrier, a non-woven non-perforated housewrap¹, which complies with building code requirements.

• When installing James Hardie products all clearance details in figs. 5, 6, 7, 8, & 9 must be followed.

• Flashing is required over all horizontal protruding and exposed trim.

• Adjacent finished grade must slope away from the building in accordance with local building codes - typically a minimum of 6" in the first 10'.

• DO NOT install HardieTrim boards, such that they may remain in contact with standing water.

• DO NOT use stain, oil/alkyd base paint, or powder coating on James Hardie

Products.

James Hardie

products contain respirable crystalline silica, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer and is considered by IARC and NIOSH to be a cause of cancer from some occupational

sources. Breathing excessive amounts of respirable silica dust can also cause a disabling and potentially fatal lung disease called silicosis, and has been linked with other diseases. Some studies suggest

smoking may increase these risks. During installation or handling: (1) work in outdoor areas with ample ventilation; (2) use fiber cement shears for cutting or, where not feasible, use a HardieBlade

saw blade

and dust-reducing circular saw attached to a HEPA vacuum; (3) warn others in the immediate area; (4) wear a properly-fitted, NIOSH-approved dust mask or respirator (e.g. N-95) in accordance with applicable

government regulations and manufacturer instructions to further limit respirable silica exposures. During clean-up, use HEPA vacuums or wet cleanup methods - never dry sweep. For further information, refer

to our installation instructions and Material Safety Data Sheet available at www.jameshardie.com or by calling 1-800-9HARDIE (1-800-942-7343). FAILURE TO ADHERE TO OUR WARNINGS, MSDS, AND

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS MAY LEAD TO SERIOUS PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.

INSTALLATION

HardieTrim may be installed using traditional fastening method or by concealed fastening method.

Traditional Fastener Requirements

Use 2" minimum 16 ga. finish nails to attach HardieTrim boards to wood frame construction. ET&F

or equivalent fasteners or screws may be used to attach HardieTrim boards to steel frame

construction.

Fastening instructions are similar for all applications. When using finish nails, position nails no

closer than 1/2" from the edges of the trim and for all other fasteners no closer than 3/4".

Fasteners must be no closer than 1" from ends of trim and spaced a maximum of 16" o.c.

Ensure trim is adequately fastened.

James Hardie recommends using stainless steel finish nails when installing HardieTrim (Trim,

Battens, Fascia, etc.) products.

HardieTrim 4/4 and 5/4 Boards with ColorPlus

Technology:

A finish nail is required for installing HardieTrim 4/4 and 5/4 boards. Remove laminate sheet as

soon as possible after nailing. Nail head touch up can be done before or after removal of the laminate sheet when using finish nails. The preferred method is to

touch-up while the laminate sheet is in place. Remove the laminate sheet before paint dries.

HardieTrim

4/4,5/4 boards are decorative non-load bearing trim products.

OUTDOORS

1. Position cutting station so that wind will blow dust away from user

and others in working area.

2. Use one of the following methods:

b. Better: i. Dust reducing circular saw equipped with a

HardieBlade

saw blade and HEPA vacuum extraction

c. Good: i. Dust reducing circular saw with a HardieBlade saw blade

(only use for low to moderate cutting)

INDOORS

- NEVER use a power saw indoors

- NEVER use a circular saw blade that does not carry the HardieBlade

saw blade trademark

- NEVER dry sweep – Use wet suppression or HEPA Vacuum

Important Note: For maximum protection (lowest respirable dust production), James Hardie recommends always using “Best”-level cutting methods where feasible.

NIOSH-approved respirators can be used in conjunction with above cutting practices to further reduce dust exposures. Additional exposure information is available

at www.jameshardie.com to help you determine the most appropriate cutting method for your job requirements. If concern still exists about exposure levels or you

do not comply with the above practices, you should always consult a qualified industrial hygienist or contact James Hardie for further information.
