INSTRUCTIONS

• When attaching trim as batten strips, follow the Fastening Instructions section in this document.

− Exception: When using trim less than 3 inches wide as battens, apply one nail per width, a maximum of every 36 inches vertically.

• When batten strips are applied over panel siding at vertical joints, sealant is not required.

• When batten strips are applied to walls with horizontal panel joints, do not run battens over the panel joint and ashing. Terminate the

trim battens above and below the horizontal panel joint to allow for proper spacing and ashing. (See diagrams 10a and 10b)

• When batten strips are applied to walls with horizontal band boards be sure to properly ash above and below the band board. Leave a

minimum 3/8 inch space between the ends of the batten strips and the band board. Prime and paint all cut ends and exposed substrate.

Z-ashing installed below the band board must cover the top ends of the batten strips below. (See diagrams 10c and 10d)
