OPTIONAL: 7 DEGREE TILT IN LANDSCAPE ONLY
Position the leg set assembled in Steps 4 and 5 above so that
it is flush against the vertical wall of the L-Foot or T-Foot X.
Hand tighten the bottom of the Tilt Connector to the Foot
with the M10 T-bolt and Serrated Hex Nut from the Tilt
Connector Set.
Note: You will now have a spare M10 T-Bolt and serrated nut
from the EverFlash Kit or L-Foot or T-Foot X Kit.
Using appropriate alignment techniques, (i.e. level, string
line, etc.), ensure the appropriate tilt angle and roof clearan-
ces are obtained.
Torque: 25.8 ft-lbs (35Nm).
Ensure T-bolts are properly engaged in the rail channel via
the alignment indicator on the end of the bolt shaft.
Materials required: Tilt Leg Set, L-Foot or T-Foot X, M10
T-Bolt (use bonding T-bolt with dark rail), Serrated Hex Nut.

ATTACH HORIZONTAL RAILS
Attach the horizontal sections of CrossRail 44-X/48-X/48-
XL (depending upon your design criteria), to the Tilt Leg sets
using the Climber Set.
Note: The maximum distance from the horizontal rails to the
support points is 8 inches (see Figure 5).
Always be sure to follow the PV module installation guide
to ensure the rails are positioned appropriately along the
module frame.
Torque Climber Set: 11.8 ft-lbs (16Nm).
Important: Due to thermal expansion, we recommend pla-
cing a gap of 1.25-2.00 inches (3-5 cm) every 65 ft (20 m)
between rails. Maximum allowable spacing between thermal
expansion gaps shall not exceed 80 ft (24.4 m).
Materials required: Tilt Leg Set, Climber Set, CrossRail 44-X,
48-X or 48-XL.
