<br />Precautionary Notes
<br />Timberline` Series sh s are fiberglass, self-sealing asphalt shingles, Because of the natural
<br />characterisk5-of the high clualty waterproofing rnatenal used, these shingles will be stiff in cold
<br />weather and flexible in hot weather.
<br />1. Bundles should not be drL* art edge nor should attempt be made to separate shingles by
<br />breaking` over ridge or bundles.
<br />2. Handle carefully. Shingles can easily be broken in cold weather or their edges damaged in hot
<br />weather.
<br />3. All exposed materials must be of Class A type.
<br />4. Storage should be in a covered. ventilated area -maximum temperature 110°F (43°C.) Store
<br />on flat surface and use weic)ht ehatiziort boards if pallets are to be double stacked.
<br />gtingles must be protwled from weather when stored ate site. Do not store rear steam
<br />ppipes, radiators, etc., or in sunlight. Ali rc i oduct rru.rst be stored on ends.
<br />5. If shingles are to be applied dirtr� PROLOi1fD COLD periods or in areas where airborne
<br />dust or sand can be expected before sealing occurs, the shingles MUST be hart! sealed.
