With help locate the ridge with the roof corner
bars. Once into position, drill 2 pilot holes into
each end as in diagram 16. Try to keep the angle
something close to diagram 17, through the top
face of the roof corner bars. This is to prevent
the end or the screw coming through the
bottom of the roof glazing bar. This angle will
also give a much better and stronger fixing.
