inch or longer. Nails must always penetrate through plywood decks.or at least%-inch into wood planks. NOTE:GAF
recommends 3-inch ring shank nails for increased uplift resistance.

ridge vent with the exterior of.the.baffle aligned with-the chalk line (Figure J). Proceed with using the 1' interval
EasyTear—system to custom size the vent to the appropriate length.If the EasyTear`° system can not be utilized,use a
utility knife to size the vent. Nail gun targets are embossed on the part as a guide for property attaching vent to the

6.4.4 NOTE:When fastening the vent and cap shingles,be sure that the included 1 3/4-inch coil nails completely penetrate
plywood or provide at least 3/4-inch penetration into wood planks.In.the case they do not,you must use alternate nails
that provide the required penetration. Proceed with attaching the other side of the vent.When beginning to nail down
the second side, do NOT begin at.the end; begin between the first and second one-foot sections and then return to
fasten the first one-foot section.This will allow for proper fit.
