gutter extrusion, then line up the 4 holes on the gutter end plate with the port holes on the end of 
the gutter section and using 4 No. x 5/8'' self tapping screws secure in place. Finally using a 
dobbing stick or finger with disposable gloves apply a bead around the internal gutter section at the 
end. Repeat at the other end. Please see diagrams below:

STEP 16

 

Make Sure Your Canopy/Carport is Square

To ensure the carport is square, using the roofing square, attach one edge of the square to the wall 
plate and the other edge will need to continuously touch the other edge of the square. This will 
ensure the gutter beam is perpendicular to the wall plate.

STEP 16a

 

Ensuring your Canopy/Carport is Level

Using a spirit level ensure the front beam is completely level and your posts are plumb.
