A. Attach Right and Left hand gables to Front Frame
1. Stand the right hand end frame and the front frame up so that they meet at the right front
corner. Push the gutter/eave bar into the small gap between the roof and side corner bars so
that the slotted holes at the end of the eave flanges line up with the bolt slot in the corner bar.
The gutter is OUTSIDE the end frame and the two flanges that form the angle of roof and side
are INSIDE and tight up against the bolt slots of the roof and side corner bars. ( Key point ).
The extra bolts inserted into the corner bar during gable end assembly can now be slid into the
slots in the eave bar to secure the corner (see page 13).
2.
The bottom cill attaches to the inside of the corner bar. The bolt placed in the bolt slot at
gable end assembly (see page 13) will slide down into the slotted hole at the end of the cill.
3.
Do the same operation with the left hand gable and front frame.
B. The next step is to put the roof on and this is done in 3 steps:
1. Attaching the ridge
Firstly insert the glazing beading into the vee groove, then in the same way the gutter slotted
into the corner bars so too does the ridge. Slot the ridge onto the corner bars, ensuring that the
flat side of the ridge is facing the wall. The bolts inserted in the roof corner bars at original
frame assembly can now be slid into the slots at the end of the ridge. ( Key point ).
2. Securing the roof bars
Firstly insert the glazing beading into both sides of the two glazing bars (one glazing bar for
4’ x 2’). Put one bolt into one bar and place it through the hole in the flange on the ridge. Put
a nut on and tighten up. Do the same with the other roof bars, if your unit is the 6’, 8’ or 10’
have the extra bolt in the bars only where the vent is to be situated.
From the bottom of the roof bar insert 2 bolts into the bolt slot. Put the second bolt through
the holes in the upper flange of the gutter, put a nut on and tighten up. The extra bolt will be
used later to secure the vent slam bar. (
Key point ).
