Note: These cuts will allow the edges of the sill pan to be bent.

covering the exterior sill pan lip as
shown.

3"tab at the bottom, on opposite corners as shown.

The tape is applied so 1-1/2" will cover the
inside of the rough opening and lap over the
side flange of the sill pan. The 1-1/2" x 3" tab
laps over the bottom flashing tape as shown.
Q. Cut two 6" pieces of flashing tape and
apply to each side of the rough opening,
overlapping the first piece by 1" and lapping
