From the quote given determine where the brackets are going to be fastened to the seam. Make a chalk line or measure from the eave to the point of up the seam to where the bracket will be secured into place. The flat face of the bracket always faces upslope.
Secure the brackets in place by tightening the stainless steel set screws, pinching them to the seam using a pre set torque tool set to 120 inch pounds. If you do not have a pre-set torque tool any socket set can be used. However, a torque measuring device (purchased at any hardware store) must be used to confirm that the 120 inch pounds of torque has been met.
Step 2: Tube installation
The tubes install one into the other by sliding the swaged end of the first tube, into the full size, opposite end of the next tube. Tubes can be easily cut to the appropriate length when needed with a power or hack saw. At the first bracket in any run, and at the last bracket of the same run a stop pin must be inserted through the tube, on the inside position of the first and last brackets, to prevent the tubes from sliding out of position. The stop pin is installed by pre-drilling the tubes with a 1/8” drill bit and tab the stop pins, which are provided, into the hole with a hammer
NOTE: For easiest results install several brackets and then a fence piece or tubing and then repeat. This will help proper alignment at all times and allow for an easier install.
