Install the shingles on the dormer side, then use
the hook knife to cut the excess shingles. Do
not cut into the next layer of shingles. Do this
on both sides.
Next shingle the back side.
Cut pieces for the ridge cap. See instructions on the
shingle package. A regular utility knife will work
good to cut this, cut the shingles from the back side.
Then install on the top using 7/8” roofing nails.
When you reach the center make the cuts as
the picture shows.
Install more ridge caps making cuts as needed.
Cut a ridge cap with a rounded edge as
pictured and install.
