Step 1F. Finalizing the First Row of Attachments - Following the installation the first row of
attachments, tighten the lag bolts furthest to the East and West, The Lag Bolt must be centered
within the L Brackets oblong hole to ensure good fit for rows of modules up the roofs slope.
Once the two end attachments are tight, the L brackets between them are tightened to 15-20 ft.
/lbs. Use a string pulled taught from end to end to align all the interior brackets in a straight
line. The L brackets in the second row up the slope of the roof remain loose until the first of
modules are installed. Leaving the upper L-brackets loose allows the module frames to be
installed without interference.
4. Module Installation
The figure below illustrates the thread patterns of a Westinghouse Solar Splice. Notice that the
threads on either end are opposite. This design feature allows the splice to connect two
Westinghouse Solar module frames together when rotated. Observe that one end of the splice
is marked with three small circles. This marking identifies a left hand thread at that end of the
splice. Use this marking to quickly identify which end of the Westinghouse Solar splice you are
holding. Splice Channels are either marked with three small circles to identify a left hand thread
fit or are blank to identify a right hand thread pattern. If a splice does not thread with ease, try
the other end, do not force the Westinghouse Solar splice.
