Step 9 - Replace the shingles
Use a framing square to cut the replacement shingles to size.
(fig. 27)
Generally, you will want to reinstall each row so that they
overlap the flashing up to 5 1/2 inches from the outer edge of the flashing as shown in
(fig. 28)
Trim excess material from
shingles so they can fit around with the same 5 1/2 inch overlay.
(fig. 29)
Use roofing nails and asphalt roofing cement to re-attach
the shingles. For ideal fit and finish, we recommend covering the flashing with shingles leaving only the bottom center area of
the flashing exposed as shown.

Step 10 - Secure the flex tube to
the ceiling frame
Reach through the ceiling frame and pull the flex tube through the ceiling frame and into the room. Continue pulling until it is
tight, the wires will lock onto the lip at the top of the ceiling frame. Cut the flex tube off level with the bottom of the ceiling
frame.
(fig. 31)
Fit the white plastic flex tube locking ring into position with the provided countersunk screws. Start at one end and work your
way around the locking ring. Be sure to line up the recesses in the flex tube locking ring with the recesses in the ceiling frame to
ensure the flex tube and locking ring are not overhanging the ceiling frame lip.

Snap the ceiling lens onto the ceiling frame.

Step 8 - Install the flashing assembly
When you are ready to install the flashing assembly, first apply a bead of asphalt roofing cement
to the underside of the flashing base.
(fig. 22)
Re-install the flex tube into the roof opening and
carefully place the top of the flashing underneath the top-most row of shingles.
(fig. 23)
Line up
the bottom of the flashing with the shingle line and drive a screw into the center hole on the bot-
tom as shown in
(fig. 24)
This will allow you to fine tune the angle if necessary. Use standard
1.5” roofing nails or screws (not included) to secure the flashing in place
