Do not
install brackets on any deteriorated or unsafe
metal roofs.
Do not
install brackets if you are not a professional
tradesman with experience on metal roofs.
Do not
install brackets on metal roof without proper
training from a supervisor on a ground level demo roof
with your profile type.
CAPACITY
Maximum load per roofing bracket is 300 lbs. (135 kg) on a
wet or dry roof.
TO DETERMINE CORRECT CLAMPING PRESSURE:
Determining clamping pressure is the same procedure for
all three brackets: THE ULTIMATE BRACKET, THE
BIG BOY’S BRACKET, and THE ROOFER’S
HELPER.
Step One:
• First, unlock the steel safety lock on the handle on the
upper and lower left side of the bracket on top of the han-
dle. At the same time, lift the handle; this will disengage
and open the clamping device. Facing the bracket locate,
the adjustable thumb screws on the upper and lower right
side the clamping device.
• These two thumbscrews are designed to adjust to vari-
ous thicknesses of standing seam metal roof profiles and
gauges; they are also part of the adjustment for the
clamping pressure. While the clamping device is disen-
gaged, loosen the two thumb screws by two or three
complete turns counterclockwise.
• Now take the bracket and place it firmly over the stand-
ing seam. Next, grab the handles on the left and firmly
press down. Initially the brackets should be a little loose
on the standing seam panel; if not, then disengage and
turn the two thumb screws again counterclockwise one
more complete turn and re-clamp.
Step Two:
While the brackets are clamped loosely on the standing
seam panel, tighten the upper and lower thumb screws by
hand until both sides of the rubber pads are snug against
the upright part of the standing seam panel.
Step Three:
• Disengage the bracket again, and make two complete
clockwise turns with the thumb screws.
• Firmly clamp the bracket onto your standing seam.
There should be between 30 ft. lbs. (40.67 Nm) and 40 ft.
lbs. (54.23 Nm) of torque. In order to determine your
torque you will need an Allen socket and torque wrench.
This torque process is required only once to determine if
the thumb screws have been properly set for your par-
ticular standing seam panel profile and gauge. Once
this information is determined, it should be saved for all
future installations on this particular standing seam
panel profile and gauge.
WHERE TO PLACE AND USE THE TORQUE WRENCH
WITH ALLEN SOCKET:
• Place the 10 mm Allen socket onto the torque
wrench.
• Disengage the bracket while keeping it securely on
the standing seam panel.
