ATTACHING THE CABLE AT THE STARTING POINT
WARNING: Use only the clips and spacers provided to attach the cable.
Do not attempt to staple or nail the cable or attach the cable with materials
such as glue, caulk or adhesive. While the cable is being laid-out on the
roof, loose attachment of the clips and spacers is recommended in case
adjustments must be made.
To attach the cable properly, it must lie flat on the roof. To this end, uncoil the cable
so that it is not twisted or tangled. If not properly uncoiled, the cable may be hard to
clip to your roof.
Attach the cable to the edge of the roof near the outlet using the clips as
shown in
Figure 10 or 11
. Do not plug in the cable at this time.
Then, route your cable as planned on your roof or in your gutter and
downspouts. Details on clip and spacer attachment are provided in the
following sections.
