Series 95 Vertical Sliding Operation and MaintenanceOperationUnlock and slide the locking handle to the "open" position. Grip the front (nearest) sash at the centre interlock bar and slide to the open position (a sharp opening action may be necessary to overcome the resistance of the weather seal and sash extension). To open the back (furthest) sash repeat as for the front sash but working from the cavity side through the open front sash. Care must be taken to ensure that pressure is not exerted to the face of the sash whilst opening as this could engage the sash extension with the frame, effectively locking it. Closing and locking is the reverse of the above ensuring the sashes are fully engaged prior to operating the locking handle.MaintenanceCleaning AccessCleaningThe cleaning cycle will be dictated by local conditions and should consist of washing down the glass and aluminium with a non alkaline detergent in warm water using a soft cloth. For more stubborn marks on the aluminium a soft brush or nylon pad should be used. Avoid abrasive cleaners, steel wool, strong acids or alkalis. After cleaning it is advisable to rinse the surfaces with clean water and then wipe dry. Chips or scratches in a paint finish can be touched in using a matching non cellulose paint and care must be taken not to get this into draught seals or moving parts. Repair of anodised finishes is not practical other than by touching in with a colour matched paint but the finished appearance is seldom complementary.Balance AdjustmentThe balances are purpose made to suit the weight of the sashes and are not adjustable.Balance ReplacementWhen a balance fails, the weight of the sash becomes unsupported. It should be lowered to the bottom of the frame and a warning sign attached. The balances are purpose made and a replacement may be ordered through Selectaglaze, allowing a 4-5 week delivery period. A Method Statement can be provided by Selectaglaze to allow the work to be carried out by a competent person.Re-glazingThe sashes can be detached from the balances and removed from the frame to allow re-glazing. A Method Statement must be obtained from Selectaglaze beforehand and the work should only be carried out by a competent person after completing a full risk assessment. |
