ROOF VENT ASSEMBLY
The roof vent pack has 5 pieces of aluminium: and from the main box of fittings you require 6’
of glazing beading, 4 nuts and bolts, 2 casement stay pins, 1 casement stay and 6 M4 stainless
steel nuts and bolts.
PROCEDURE:
1. Identify the slam bar and attach the 2 stay pins to the outer side of the angle using the M4
stainless steel nuts and bolts.
2. Lay the 4 edge pieces of the roof vent on a level surface as though you were on the inside of
the roof vent (with the bolt slots of the vent side rails uppermost and the ‘v’ slots of the vent
bottom rail upper most. The vent top rail is arranged in such a way that the squared off end is
to the bottom and the hooked hinge uppermost).
3. Slide the glazing beading into the v grooves in the vent side and vent top rails and trim to suit.
4. Insert a bolt into each end of the vent side rail bolt slots, put these bolts through the holes in
the vent top and bottom rails, add nuts and lightly tighten. Check that all joints are secure and
that the vent is square, and then tighten up the nuts.
5. Fit the casement stay using the M4 stainless steel nuts and bolts, putting the bolts through the
holes in the saddle of the stay through the 2 elongated holes in the bottom rail. Hold the nuts
in place and tighten the bolts with a screwdriver.
Do the same with the other roof vents.
