POLYCARBONATE ROOF PANELS (continued)
Tap the end of the H-channel as needed so it is one (1)
13.
inch from the upper end (no tape) of the polycarbonate
panel.
ATTENTION:
The 1" clearance allows for the
installation of the aluminum U-channel (104213) that
will be installed later in these instructions.
Depending on the lengths of the polycarbonate panels
and the H-channel and the installation, the lower ends
may not be aligned. If the recommended baseboard is
installed, these irregular ends are covered.
Take the prepared panel and, with the proper
14.
assistance, set it on the frame. Position the unfinished
edge against the H-channel attached to the rafter.
