Determine the positions of the Roof Hooks according to your
plans. Remove the roof tiles at the marked positions or, if
possible, simply push them up slightly.
Fix the Roof Hooks to the rafter using Clenergy provided
Buildex 14 gauge Hex Head Zips screw with minimum 25 mm
embedment as shown in the figure on the right following the
Buildex screws installation guide below:
- Use a 3/8" Hex Socket.
- Use a mains powered or cordless screw driver with a drive
speed of 3,000 RPM maximum.
- Fit the driver bit into the screw and place at the fastening
position.
- Apply consistently firm pressure (end load) to
the screwdriver until the screw is fastened.
The roof hook must not press against the roof tile.
If necessary, pack the roof hook with max pack height of 17
mm for Clenergy provided Buildex 50 mm long screw, with

If necessary, use an angle grinder to cut a recess in the tile

extends so that the tile lies flat on the surface. If grooved tiles
are used, it will also be necessary to cut a recess in the lower
tile.
