Rafter Introduction
All rafters consist of the following four (4) pipes: 2 (30R23S1D), 1 (30R23S1), and 1 (30R23P2).
The two 30R23S1D pipes include a hole drilled near the bottom to connect the rafter foot.
Assemble End Rafter
1. Connect the pipes in the order shown in the figure below.
2. With the rafter assembled on the ground, secure each pipe joint with one self-tapping Tek
screw (FA4482). See Figure 1. Position screws so they will not interfere with the cover.
3. Attach all (QH1070) brackets to the rafter in the locations shown using two (2) Tek screws.
These brackets are attached to the underside of the rafter and are positioned at each pipe
joint and midway between each pipe joint as shown below.
4. Insert one rafter foot (104302) into the bottom of the rafter and secure with FAG363 bolt and
nut. The head of the bolt must be to the outside of the rafter to prevent damage to the cover
when it is installed. Repeat this step for the remaining rafter foot.
5. After attaching a foot to both ends of Rafter A, measure 10" from the bottom of each foot and
mark a line on the inside of the rafter.
6. Position the bottom of one QH1070 bracket on the line and secure using two self-tapping Tek
screws (Figure 2).
7. Repeat Step 6 for the other side of the rafter.
8. Repeat this procedure to assemble a second End Rafter when that rafter is needed.
