1) Choice of Tile Bracket
ER-I-02 would be the most appropriate tile interface for slate tile
application. Given slate tiles are generally flat and low-lying, nailed into
the roof battens.
2) Removing Slate Tiles
Determine the positions of the tile brackets according to your plans.
Take out the nails on the slate tiles and remove two or three slate tiles
at the marked positions.
Slate tiles are removed by using a slate rip which unhooks the nail that
secures the slate. By hitting the slate rip handle with a hammer, the nail
is pulled out. Thus, allowing slate to be removed, as shown in Figure 4.1.2.
3) Cutting Slate Tile
Grind a small section off the base tile to show the rafter on which the
roof hook would be installed. This is shown in Figure 4.1.3.
