INSTALL THE STARTING BOARD

• Install starting board with grooved edge against the house or on the
outside edge of the porch if the boards will run perpendicular to the
house.
• Attach the starting board by first installing fasteners down through the
board at the edge nearest the groove.
• Then attach at each joist by driving a fastener through the tongue at the
approximate angle shown in Diagram 1.
• Fasteners should seat approximately 1/16” into the surface of the
product above the tongue as shown to allow for complete insertion of
the next board.
