INSTALLATION OF PANEL (

3. Roll the female leg of the second panel into place over the male leg of the first panel so their ends are flush. Do not let the

flat of the second panel touch the Double Bead Tape Sealant at the eave until the ends are flush.

4. Use Cee Clamps to hold the two vertical legs of the panel seams together.

5. Install five (5) #12-14 x 1

" Self Driller XL screws through the panel, tape sealant, eave flashing, and into Eave Plate

using the fastening sequence previously shown.

6. Measure the distance from the female leg of the first panel installed. This dimension should be and even multiple of

16"-¼" for every four panels. It is very important that the dimension from the start panel to the last male leg, at the eave

and peak, be the same dimension within a ¼" of each other.

7. Make certain that all clips are properly installed and that the panel sidelaps are properly positioned to be seamed. Use the

hand crimper to crimp the panel seam at the eave and ridge ends only. This will adequately hold panels in place until fully

seamed. Do not hand crimp the panel seam or panel clip at any other locations. Doing so will not allow proper function

of electric seamer.

CAUTION

Hand crimping will not fasten the panels together tightly enough to withstand normal wind uplift

forces. Be sure to seam all panels as soon as possible. (See seaming panels on pages 31 and 32

for proper seaming instructions.)
