2.Determine the number of collectors needed for the installation and the number of required roof attachments from Table 3B or 3C on page 11.

3.Determine collector connection points (spacing). Measure the spacing of the rafters or trusses to confirm the dimensions and prepare for the system layout (reference the Roof Attachment Spacing Section on page 12).

4.Number two (2) tiles, one above the other. The top tile will be removed to install the flat tile hook.

5.Remove the top tile from the roof (set aside for reassembly).

6.Place the tiled roof hook over the roof batten of the bottom tile (FIG. 3-11).

7.Place the metal sheet provided in the kit under the flat tile hook (FIG. 3-11). Using the nails provided in the kit, secure the metal sheet to the roof substructure (FIG. 3-11).

8.Secure the tiled roof hook to the roof substructure using the screws provided in the kit (FIG. 3-11).

9.Replace the tile removed in Step 5.

Note: It may be necessary to grind the top tile to assure a better fit (FIG. 3-12).
