Pre-Assembly of Tilt Assemblies on Base Rails
If a holding rack is available, such as the one shown in the photo below, you may choose to use
this method to speed up the assembly process.
Prior to hoisting the skid of tilt
assemblies and the bundle of
bottom rails to the roof of
your building, take time to
pre-assemble the tilt
assemblies onto the bottom
rail while still on the ground.
Using sawhorses to hold the
work piece at waist height, cut
all necessary lengths. Refer to
your Construction Package for
lengths of base rails.
Once cut, place tilt
assemblies onto the entire
length, lining them up to
the holes. Use the M8 bolt
and serrated nut to fasten
the tilt assembly in place.
Torque to 7 ft-lbs. Place on
holding rack. Ensure that
the bundle is adequately
secured to the holding rack
for hoisting to the roof.
