3. When re-glazing an opening or openings at a captured unit follow these instructions:
a. Carefully insert new setting blocks in the locations as noted in the approved shop drawings.
b. Clean the new glass or panel and set it in place, centered in the opening, setting on the setting blocks. Do not contaminate the sealant contact
surfaces of the glazing during handling. Press the glazing firmly against the spacer gaskets. Avoid sliding the glazing around on the spacers, as this
can force sealant into visible areas seen from the interior.
c. Apply temporary retainers (FM12) with wedge gaskets (WNA3) at 18” on center of the D.L.O. on all four sides of the opening.
