IKO <br /> Installation Instructions for <br /> Asphalt Shingles <br /> Page 4 of 5 <br /> IKO Hip and Ridge 12 Application Instructions <br /> (ASTM D3161, Class F—IKO Hip and Ridge 12) <br /> NOTE: THESE INSTRUCTIONS SHALL BE USED IN CONJUCTION WITH IKO'S PUBLISHED <br /> APPLICATION.INSTRUCTIONS AND THE APPLICABLE CODE. IN THE EVENT THE INSTRUCTION <br /> CONFLICT,THESE INSTRUCTIONS WILL GOVERN. <br /> Cut hip and ridge shingles into thirds, using the perforation marks as a cutting guide. These shingles are <br /> designed for a 51/8"(130 mm)exposure. (For a neater appearance,the top of each side of each piece has <br /> been factory trimmed on a 1"(25 mm)taper(see drawing). Bend each piece over the hip or ridge,and nail 5 <br /> 5/8" (143 mm)above the butt edge 1" (25 mm) in from each edge, exposing each piece 5 1/8" (130 mm). <br /> Apply hip pieces starting at the lower end of the hip, working up toward the ridge. On hip roofs, apply ridge <br /> pieces starting at each end, meeting in the middle. On gable roofs, apply ridge pieces starting at the end <br /> opposite to the prevailing wind direction and continue to the other end. Note:To obtain a three-dimensional <br /> effect,(which is recommended,but not required),apply hip and ridge shingles double thickness by stacking 2 <br /> pieces on top of one another,the lower piece extending about 3/4" (19 mm)further than the top piece(see <br /> diagram).The-final shingle should be set in cement,and the exposed nail heads of the final shingle should be <br /> covered with cement. Prior to application in cold weather, storing the shingles in a heated area will allow for <br /> easier bending. <br /> NOTE:SHINGLES MUST BE APPLIED PROPERLY.THEYARE DESIGNED FOR USE AS HIP AND RIDGE <br /> SHINGLES ONLY, AND SHOULD NOT BE USED FOR ANY OTHER APPLICATIONS. WE ASSUME NO <br /> RESPONSIBILITY FOR LEAKS OR DEFECTS RESULTING FROM POOR APPLICATION OR FAILURE TO <br /> PROPERLY PREPARE THE SURFACE TO BE ROOFED OVER, OR FAILURE TO PROVIDE PROPER <br /> VENTILATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH MINIMUM PROPERTY STANDARDS REQUIREMENTS.REVIEW <br /> ALL APPLICABLE BUILDING CODES,MINIMUM PROPERTY STANDARDS,AND REQUIREMENTS PRIOR <br /> TO APPLYING THESE SHINGLES USING THESE APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS. <br /> arm <br /> w MM1 <br /> TAPER CUT <br /> 5 TB f <br /> 6W <br /> ti62m[t� <br /> 0 <br /> PRI Construction Materials Technologies,LLC.6412 Badger Drive Tampa,FL 33610 Tel:813-621-5777 Fax:813-621-5840 e-mail:materialstesting@pricmtcom WebSite:http://www.pdcmt.com <br />
