1. Once panels have been installed, slide Back-Up Channel under upper edge of panels. Position Back-Up Channel to allow for
proper installation of Ridge/Hip assembly. Use C-clamps to hold Back-Up Channel in place.
2. Apply a row of Double Bead Tape Sealant across panel, up and over all ribs approximately 2” from panel end on both sides
of Ridge/Hip.
3. Install Vertical Seam Z-Closures over Double Bead Tape Sealant. Before continuing make sure Z-Closure placement will
accommodate SSR Ridge Cover (see page 47 for Z-Closure installation).
4. Once Z-Closure is set in Double Bead Tape Sealant, fasten through Z-Closure, tape sealant, Vertical Seam panel, and into
Back-Up Channel with (4) #10-16 x 1” PHD per panel. C-clamps may be removed once closures have been fastened.
