<br />Second Cour se
<br />Start second course as shown, trim 7.56 (191 mm) from end of shingle. Position shingle
<br />in the second and subsequent courses such that the lower edge of the shingle is flush
<br />with tops of the wide cutouts. This results in a 7.56 (191 mm) exposure. Continue with full width
<br />shingles across the roof. Strike a chalk line ever y few courses to check parallel alignment with
<br />eaves.
<br />NOTE: Shingles may be laid from

<br />Precautionar y Notes
<br />These shingles are fiberglass, self-sealing asphalt shingles. Because of the natural characteristics
<br />of the high quality waterproofing material used, these shingles will be stiff in cold weather and
<br />flexible in hot weather .
<br />1. These shingles are particularly tough, heavyweight shingles with a definitely rugged looking
<br />appearance. They require additional effort to trim to fit on the roof. Curved blade utility
<br />knives are more effective than straight bladed utility knives in cutting these shingles. Using
<br />a cir cular saw equipped with carbide tipped blades is also effective.
<br />2. Regardless of the tool used, always wear proper protective wear i.e. gloves, eye protection,
<br />etc., follow all protection procedures and use tools carefully to prevent personal injuy when
<br />working with these heavier products.
<br />3. Do not drop bundles on edge or on other bundles to separate shingles. Do not load bundles
<br />across a hip or ridge. Do not bend bundles over shoulder for caging. Premium weight may
<br />cause cracks at sharp bend points.
<br />4. Handle carefully . Shingles can easily be broken in cold weather or their edges damaged in hot
<br />weather .
<br />5. Store in a covered, ventilated areaDmaximum temperature 110iF (43iC). Store on flat
<br />Sur face and use weight equalization boards if pallets are to be double stacked. Shingles must
<br />be protected from weather when stored at job site. Do not store near steam pipes, radiators,
<br />etc., or in sunlight.
<br />6. If shingles are to be applied during PROLONGED COLD periods or in areas where airborne
<br />dust or sand can be expected before sealing occurs, the shingles MUST be hand sealed.
<br />See 6WInd Resistance/Hand Sealing6 instructions.
<br />IMPOR TANT. Repair leaks promptly to avoid adverse effects, Including mold growth.
<br />Re -Roofing
<br />If old asphalt shingles are to remain in place, nail down or cut away all loose, curled or lifted
<br />shingles; replace with new; and just before applying the new roofing, sweep the sur face dean of all
<br />loose debris. Since any irregularities may show through the new shingles, be sure the underlying
<br />shingles provide a smooth sur face. Fasteners must be long enough to penetrate the wood deck at
<br />least 3/4" (19mm) or just through plywood. Follow above instructions for application.
<br />Note: Shingles can be applied over wood shingles if the sur face can be made smooth enough.
<br />This may include cutting back old shingles at eaves and rakes and installing new wood edging
<br />strips as needed, and the use of beveled wood strips. Install #30 underlayment to maintain Class
<br />A rating.

<br />GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
<br />*ROOF DECKS: Wood decks must be well -seasoned, supported, and tightly -constructed with
<br />maximum 66 (152mm) wide lumber , having adequate nail -holding capacity and a smooth Bur face.
<br />Plywood decking as recommended by The Engineered W ood Assn. is acceptable. Where a Class A
<br />rating is required over decks less than 15/326 thick, an underlayment is required. Do not fasten
<br />shingles directly to insulation or insulated deck unless authorized in writing by GAF Roof decks
<br />and existing sur facing material must be dry prior to application of shingles
<br /># UNDERLA YMENT : Underlayment beneath shingles has many benefits, including preventing
<br />wind driven rain from reaching the interior of the building and preventing sap in some wood deck-
<br />ing from reacting with asphalt shingles. Undedayment is also required by many code bodies.
<br />Where an undedayment is to be installed, use a breather -type underlayment such as GAF
<br />Shingle -Mate underlayment.
<br />*FASTENERS: Use of nails is recommended. Use only zinc coated steel or aluminum, 10-12
<br />gauge, barbed, deformed or smooth shank roofing nails with heads 3/86 (10mm) to 7/166 (12mm)
<br />in diameter . Fasteners should be long enough to penetrate at least 3/46 (19mm) into wood decks
<br />or just through the plywood decks. Fasteners must be driven flush with the sur face of the shingle.
<br />Over driving Will damage the shingle. Raised fasteners will inter fare with the sealing of the shin-
<br />gles.
<br /># WIND RESIST ANCE/HAND SEALING: These shingles have a special thermal sealant that
<br />firmly bonds the shingles together after application when exposed to sun and warm tempera-
<br />tures. Shingles installed in Fall or Winter may not seal until the following Spring. If shin files are dam-
<br />aged by winds before sealing or are not exposed to adequate Sur face temperatures, or if the self -
<br />sealant gets dirty , the shingles may never seal. Failure to seal under these cir cumstances results
<br />fro the nature of self-sealing shingles and is not a manufacturing defect.
<br />Underla yment: Standard Slope04/12 (333mm/m) or more
<br />Application of undedayment: Cover deck with one layer of undedayment installed without
<br />wrinkles. Use only enough nails to hold underlayment in place until covered by shingles.
<br />Application of save flashing: Install save flashing such as GAF Materials Corporation W Bather
<br />Watch or StormGuard Leak Barrier in localities where leaks may be caused by water backing
<br />up behind ice or debris dams. Eave flashing must overhang the roof edge by 3/86 (10mm) and
<br />extend 246 (610mm) beyond the inside wall line.

<br />To insure immediate sealing, apply 4 quarter -sized dabs of shingle tab adhesive on the back of
<br />the shingle 1" (25mm) and 13" (330mm) in from each side and 1' (25mm) up from bottom of the
<br />shingle. Press shingle finely into the adhesive. For maximum wind resistance along rakes, cement
<br />shingles to underlayment and each other in a 4" (102mm) width of asphalt plastic roof cement.
<br />NOTE: Excess tab adhesive can cause blistering of the shingle. The film strips on the back of
<br />each shingle are to prevent sticking together of the shingles while in the bundle. Their removal is NOT
<br />required during application.
<br /># CANADIAN COLD WEA THER APPLICA TIONS: CSA 123.5-M90 mandates that shin-
<br />gles applied between September 1 and April 30 shall be adhered with a compatible field -applied
<br />adhesive. See Wind Resistance/Hand Sealing for the application of adhesive.
<br />*MANSARD AND STEEP SLOPE APPLICA TIONS: For roof slopes greater than 21"
<br />(1750mm/m) per foot (do NOT use on vertical side walls), shingle must be hand sealed.
<br />See Wind Resistance/Hand Sealing for the application of adhesive.
<br />*SHINGLE TAB ADHESIVE: Use asphalt plastic cement conforming to ASTM D4856 T ype
<br />I or II.
<br />S THR OUGH VENTILA TION: All roof structures must be provided with through ventilation to
<br />prevent entrapment of moisture laden air behind roof sheathing. Proper ventilation is also nec-
<br />essar y to prevent mold growth. V entilation provisions must at least meet or exceed current
<br />F.H.A., H.U.D. or local code minimum requirements.
<br />fl NON-CORR ODING MET AL DRIP EDGES: Recommended along rake and save edges on
<br />all decks, especially plywood decks.

<br />Application of underlayment and save flashing: Completely cover the deck With two
<br />layers of underlayment as shown. Use only enough nails to hold underlayment in place
<br />until covered by shingles. Use blind nailing for save flashings. At eaves and where ice dams can
<br />be expected, use one layer of GAF Materials Corporation W eather W etch or StormGuard Leak
<br />Barrier. Eave flashing must overhang the roof edge by 3/86 (10mm) and extend 246 (610mm)
<br />beyond the inside wall line. Where ice dams or debris dams are not expected, install 2 plies of
<br />Shingle -Mate underlayment.
