Fit the under gutter trim to each section of
eaves beam and gable beam, position the
beams and slide the corner cleats (already
attached to the eaves beam) into the gable
beam. Drill through the holes already in the
gable beam into the cleats and secure with
the screws supplied.

With the guttering in
place, trim the gable
beam top cladding. The
cladding is supplied
over length and cut to
suit the roof pitch (see
table).

Next attach the notched gable beam top
cladding on to the head of the gable beam.

Position the gable window frame central
to the gable beam, and mark the position.
Remove the frame and again run two beads
of silicone along the head of the gable
beam top cladding (the width of the window

SECTION 12
To secure the gable beam (see Vic Fixing
Kit page 8), then at this stage the guttering
is installed. First attach the gutter brackets
to the gable/eaves beam. Fit the 90 degree
external gutter corners to the gable beam
length of gutter. The brackets are at
maximum 750mm centres and 200mm
from each corner.
Mark and cut the gable
infill end cap. Notch inner
bottom edge to allow the
end cap to sit flush and
tight to the gable window
frame. Trim top edge to
suit pitch of roof and
gable frame firring top cap
which should be placed into position for
marketing purposes. First silicone and then
screw the end cap to the gable frame.
7
Trial fit the gable infill wedge. Remove, run
two beads of silicone and place back in
position, tight up against the infill wedge
end cap.
NOTE: it will be necessary for non
standard pitches to trim the infill wedge
to suit the pitch, maintaining the 135mm
height dimensions.
8
Position the gable frame firring top cap
along the gable frame and over the infill
wedge. The bottom edge of the gable
frame firring top cap is cut to finish flush
with the lower edge of the infill wedge and
the end of the gable beam. The top edge is
cut vertically to suit the roof pitch. Silicone
in position.
