| 1. Apply 2 lines of silicone to front and
rear edge of the window frame. |
 |
6. Temporarily support the ridge into position
by attaching bars at opposite ends of the ridge (do not tighten the
bolts). Check that the correct numbered bar is used, relevant to its
position on your roof plan. |
 |
| 2. Lay the first length of eaves beam,
ensuring the internal lip is flush to the internal frame. You will
need to notch the external lip around any window coupling profiles.
|
 |
7. Continue to fix the remaining bars to
the ridge and eaves beam loosely attaching the nuts & bolts. Firstly
attaching the radius end adaptors to the arrow headed bars before
connecting to the radius end. |
 |
| 3. Fix the appropriate fixing
cleat in the pre-drilled holes using the screws supplied. |
 |
8. Using expanding anchor bolts
(ie. 8 x 100mm Fischer Bolts), fix the end rafters back to the existing
wall. The first bolt to be placed within 150mm of the ridge and in
500mm increments thereafter. |
 |
 |
 |
| 4. Push the frame to eaves fixing lever
to fasten the eaves beam to the Shield outer frame. Alternatively,
screw up through the outer frame into eaves beam. |
 |
9. Checking that the ridge
is level, tighten all the bolts that strike the ridge first, then
tighten the bolts on the radius end checking the ridge is still level.
Now ensure that all the bolts are fully tightened. |
 |
| 5. With the eaves beam now secured to the
frames; make sure both the external eaves cladding and glazing support
sections are clipped on. |
