INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION öko skin hidden fix The newly developed concealed fastening system hidden fix for öko skin facade slats enables quick and easy installation. With the concealed attachment, the öko skin slats are even more effective, since the overall appearance is not marred by rivets or screws. Rieder supplies all fastening components as well as the öko skin slats. These are delivered to the site already pre-drilled, whereby the installation effort is reduced. Rieder provides a calculation tool to calculate the exact number of required components. Instruction video at: www.rieder.cc/en/hiddenfi

The matched components are sold as complete packaging units. An oko skin hidden fix set consists of 100 clips, 100 Rieder Power Anchors (RPA) and 100 screws. For a oko skin pallet, 6-8 complete sets are needed. The respective packaging units are shown in the price list. 4) Corner connector sheet Please note: AH visualisations shown in the installation instruction are schematic representations of the system.

Preparation of the substructure: Rule 155 öko skin hidden fix is suitable for ventilated facades. HAT PROFILE AT LEAST 100 MM WIDE! If wall brackets, mounting brackets (horizontal), insulation and hat profiles (made of aluminium or similar profiles made of wood or steel) have been installed, you may start by installing the starter profile at the bottom edge of the facade surface. The slats are mounted from bottom to top. The computation helps to calculate the optimal height of the starter profile 155 mm = slat height 147 mm + joint 8 mm The starting point is measured from the top of any window,...

When cutting the slats, the side of the slat must face upwards so that the cut edges do not break and appear clean. If slats are trimmed on site, new holes must be drilled (60 mm min. distance to edge). For this purpose, position the back clip and use it as a drilling jig. Then, the hole is drilled without a clip to the depth stop of the drill. The drilling dust must be removed from the blind hole. Trimmed slats must be at least 200 mm long. ALWAYS CLEAN AND BLOW OUT THE DRILL HOLES! VISIBLE SIDE FACING UP! Installation of starter profiles First fixing of the profile with drilling screw (fixed...

The fixed point clip should always be in the same place for each slat. Fixed point clip Installation of corner connection sheets 1. The corner connector sheet is pushed into the outermost clip. 2. Subsequently, the slat is bolted to the front end of the clip of the staggered slat. A corner connector sheet is used for the edges. This serves to cover and fix the back clips. The corner connector sheet may be used alternately on...

Installation fitted slats with trimmed back clips Replacement of öko skin slats In order to ensure flexibility in the design of the facade, narrower slats can also be used for connections at the bottom, at the top and in doors and windows. For this purpose, the back clip may be shortened at the points marked with a line. down Individual damaged slats may easily be replaced by the specified joint height of 8 mm, even in the middle of the field. To do this, loosen the screws on all back clips of the slat and slightly push the slat up and lift it out downwards. To replace the bottom slat, the slat...

Handling instructions Loading Safe, form-fit loading. No more than 4 pallets of the same size may be stacked on top of each other. Do not place larger pallets on top of smaller ones. Do not stack other goods on top of the pallets. The slats must not be stepped on. For container loading, we refer you to the “container information sheet”. Edge protection Safe transport calls for robust edge protection. The number of lashing straps must comply with legal requirements. Load safety must be ensured.
