GENERAL NOTES
HANDLING, STORAGE AND PROTECTION OF ALUMINUM
The following precautions are recommended to protect the material against damage. Following these precautions will
help ensure early acceptance of your products and workmanship.
A. HANDLE CAREFULLY.
AII aluminum materials at job site must be stored in a safe place well removed from possible damage by other
trades. Cardboard wrapped or paper interleaved materials must be kept dry.
B. CHECK ARRIVING MATERIALS.
Check for quantity and keep records of where various materials are stored.
C. KEEP MATERIAL AWAY FROM WATER, MUD AND SPRAY.
Prevent cement plaster or other materials from damaging the finish.
D. PROTECT THE MATERIALS AFTER ERECTION.
Protect erected frame with polyethylene or canvas splatter screen. Cement, plaster, terrazzo, other alkaline solu-
tions and acid based materials used to clean masonry are harmful to the finish. lf any of these materials come
in contact with the aluminum, IMMEDIATELY remove with water and mild soap.
The rapidly changing technology within the architectural aluminum products industry demands that United States Aluminum reserve
the right to revise, discontinue or change any product line, specification or electronic media without prior written notice.
NOTE: Dimensions in parentheses ( ) are millimeters unless otherwise noted.
Other metric units shown in this manual are:
m - meter Kg - kilogram
Pa - pascal KPa - kilopascal
MPa - megapascal N - newton

Before retrofitting the Astral Push/Pull hardware to any door, you must determine the location
of the lock from the bottom of the door. Then follow the instructions listed below that correspond
with the lock height of your door.
NOTE: If door has a "collared" rivnut that is not flush with the stile,
use one of two options.
a) Counterbore base of push/pull houseing to allow fit over
collar of nutsert.
b) Drill out all rivnuts and install flush nutserts.
Step 3: Install MF-420 Nutserts into new holes and compress using a rivnut
tool or 1/4-20 hex head bolt and nut.
Step 4: Install new Astral push/pull hardware.
NOTE: If door has a "collared" rivnut that is not flush with the stile,
use one of two options.
a) Counterbore base of push/pull houseing to allow fit over
collar of nutsert.
b) Drill out all rivnuts and install flush nutserts.
Step 3: Modify two (2) MF-420 Nutserts by grinding 1/8" off the threaded side.
See Fig. 1.
Step 4: Install one (1) modified MF-420 into the lock stile for the push bar.
Install the other modified MF-420 nutsert into the lower pull handle hole.
Step 5: Install one (1) standard MF-420 (non-modified) into the hinge stile
hole for the push bar. Install the other non-modified MF-420 nutsert
into the top hole for the pull handle.
Step 6: Compress all MF-420 nutserts using a rivnut tool or 1/4-20 hex head
bolt and nut.
Step 7: Install new Astral push/pull hardware.
