Installation of roof hooks 
 
The installation of the roof hooks is done in the same way for all types. 
 
According to the dimensioned sketch (refer to mounting options) remove one tile 
per roof hook at the according spot above the rafter. Each rafter can be used to 
attach the roof hook. 
 

 

 
 
The wide fastening border at the roof hook ensures that the pass of the roof hook 
is always at the bottom part of the tile.
