Only load as many Redland PV tiles onto the roof as you expect to install during the work
session.

Secure or remove any uninstalled PV tiles before leaving the roof to avoid possible wind
damage or theft.

Do not leave tools or unsecured materials above the Redland PV tile installation area, to
avoid potential damage to the PV tiles.
1.2 EQUIPMENT REQUIRED
