safeTY noTe! caUTIon!!! Panels MaY be slIcK
Never step on a single unsecured roof panel, or a stack of roof panels laying unattached on
the purlins .
Secure each end of the panel with clamps or appropriate fasteners and place walk boards of
adequate size and strength in the flat of any panels not fully secured to the purlins and supported
by panels on each side . Walk boards should run the full length of the panel and be fastened
together by drilling a hole near the end of each board and tied with rope to the next board . Cut a
groove in the bottom of each board so the board will lie flat and not tip back and forth because of
the rope .
noTe: always wear rubber sole work boots! When on the roof, use osHa
approved protection devices such as safety lines, safety nets or catch platforms.
