Chapter 7: Roof Assembly

Continue to the next A-frame installation until all of the A-frame rafter assemblies are installed. See

Assembling the Roof Panel Clips

The roof panel clips are located at the top of the roof rafters nearest to the center collar rafter clips.

Before You Begin

The A-frame rafters should be fully assembled and installed to the center collar and the eave brackets.

What You Should Know

The A-frame assembly consists of two roof rafters identified as the left-hand roof rafter (A) and the right-
hand roof rafter (C). The roof panel clip is installed between each rafter after the A-frame assemblies are
installed.

1. Attach the two roof panel clips (B) to the left-hand roof rafter (A), and install two flange bolts (D) and

two flange nuts (E) securing the roof panel clips to the left-hand roof rafter.

2. Attach the third roof panel clip (B) to the right-hand roof rafter (A), and install two flange bolts (D) and

two flange nuts (E) securing the roof panel clips to the right-hand roof rafter.

NOTE: Ensure that the orientation of the roof panel clip is correct, roof panel holes facing the roof

and the notch in the roof panel clip is facing the right-hand roof rafter.

3. Tighten all hardware to the recommended torque specifications only after the roof panels are

installed. See

Bolt Torque Specifications, page 24
