weathering hood (may require
trimming in certain situations).

Lift the ‘flap’ on leading edge of
the weathering hood, slide the
sealed unit underneath and push
flap back into position.
Using the main installation guide,
build the roof as normal. Attach
the bars to hub end as normal
(steps 11-13 installation guide
p9). Insert the Inter-Rafter into
its position between the 2 pre-
prepared bars and drop the ‘eye’
over the threaded post.

Now build the remainder of the roof in sequence. Then,
as in step 52, p16, seal around each glazing bar top cap
where it meets the inner wall of the ‘soft touch’ weather
-
ing shield. Trial fit the half ridge external radius end top
cap into position. Mark and drill for final rivet positions
using a 5mm drill bit. Trim to fit (see page 40). When sat
-
isfied with fit, apply a bead of appropriate sealant across
each end of the half ridge top cap. Place the radius end
cover over the weathering shield and rivet into position.

Trial fit the internal radius end cover
into position. Minor trimming to
ensure a snug fit may be required.
Offer into position and secure using
the threaded plastic rose.

On the top shelf of the half ridge, fix the
bracket using one M6 x 25mm taptite
(pozidrive) screw.
On the underside of the half ridge, fasten
the bracket using 2 M5 x 12mm taptite
screws. Check the L shaped half ridge is
finally level and attach to the host wall using
masonry anchors appropriate to substrate.
