TOOLS & PARTS

Place bottom adjustable tube (blue label) (with the
flanged end down) through the rough-cut hole in
the ceiling.

1

Guide the top portion of the tube up through the
roof flashing so it protrudes upward through the
flashing collar on the roof.

2

Place a temporary shim or ruler across the ceiling opening.
(Approx 1/8” thick)

3

Center the tube over the ceiling cut-out, resting the
tube down onto the shim. (The shim will keep the
tube from falling through the ceiling.)

4

Start with regular installation instructions beginning in Section 1.

On the roof, mark the protruding tube at the top of the
flashing collar with a felt pen. This will indicate where
the extra length of tubing must be trimmed off for a
short shaft install.
