Framed and frameless PV - Modules

Needed tools and materials

•  Open Ended Wrenches (10, 13)
•  Metric Allen Wrenches or Driver sizes: M (5, 8)
•  Cordless screwdriver
•   Approved flashing system or standoff device for the attachment  

of the system on the roof

Note:

We want to point out that our mounting instructions reflect the state of technology and our experience on how 
to install our systems on site. Due to the fact that each roof has individual characteristics, we highly recommend 
to commission a professional assessment before beginning the installation. In particular it is necessary to take 
into account static requirements.  During the installation of the system, bear in mind the compliance with the 
corresponding norms and legislation referring to the prevention of accidents (see also page 5).

Fastening to the roof:

All roof structures must be surveyed for 
appropriate structural attachment points. 
Würth Canada Solar mounting systems 
are designed from the angle bracket up. 
The approved flashing and/or standoff 
method used will be up to the contractor 
to choose and should be installed by a 
licensed roofer. One example of a standoff 
is a Quick Mount PV™ shown here. Again, 
it must be properly attached and flashed to 
prevent leaking.

 See Figure 1.1

Planning:

Base Triangles come in 3 pre-assembled configurations 10°– 15°,  
20°– 30°, and 35°– 45° and are adjustable in 5° increments.

The triangles can be manually adjusted in 5° increments by removing the 
bolt from the back of the triangle and then sliding the rear post vertically until 
the next adjustment hole is visible through the hole in which the bolt  
was removed.

Fasten all triangles at desired tilt angle.
