INSTALL RAKE BOARDS AND ROOF PANELS
WARNING:
To prevent damage to the panels and
to prevent serious personal injury,
do not attempt to
install the panels on windy days
.
Roof panels can be attached as desired. For the
purpose of these instructions, the diagrams show the
vented panels attached in the middle of the roof side.
Locate one (1) rake board (#CG08124) and attach it to the top of the
1.
front end wall
as shown below.
Verify that the angled edge of the rake board is flush against the vertical wall and secure using three
evenly spaced 2-1/2" construction screws (#FAS13).
NOTE:
Drill and countersink mounting holes in rake boards to prevent splitting.
Locate a double roof panel (#CG08118) and set it in position as shown below.
2.
NOTE:
The roof panel will be flush with the top of the adjacent rake board. Additionally, the top edge
will be flush against the vertical wall.
Secure to the rake board using three (3) 2-1/2" construction screws (#FAS13).
3.
Install screws through
the rake board and into the roof panel.
NOTE:
When installed correctly, the open edge of the double roof panel will align with the
center
of
the second inside rafter. Panel should be tight against and secured to the rake board at this time.
Secure the panel by installing 2-1/2" construction screws through the roof panel frame and into the
4.
rafters beneath in the locations shown in the bottom right diagram.
