Fixing roof Vents and Caps
If you have roof vents adjacent (either side) to
each other you will have to trim the vent caps as
detailed in fig 7. Note: if you have more than one
set of adjacent roof vents, these will require
cutting at both ends
Leave the casement fittings or automatic openers
until later.
Follow the same procedures for fitting the
remaining roof sections in place.
Where roof sections meet each other use the

Fix the plastic tongue in the slot between the two
roof panels. See fig 8.
Bend the plastic tongue over on itself when you
push the end into the slot. This will prevent it
from sliding back out and you may find it easier to
accomplish this by gripping the folded end with a
pair of pliers.
Note:
It is correct that the end of the roof section
does not line up flush with the gable end.
Finally check that all nuts and bolts are tightened
before proceeding to the next instruction.
