1. Insert standard slider top and bottom brackets into
each standard slider assembly prior to installation.
2.
Peel off the backing paper from the standard slider.
Backing paper
Each adjustable slider is equipped with 2 pre-installed
butyl sealant pads. The backing paper must be
removed prior to installation on the roof.
A hole is located at the center point of the slider. It can
be used as the site window for locating the slider on
the previously snapped chalk line.
There are 2 arrows located at one end of the slider.
The arrows should be pointing towards the eave of the
roof. The arrows indicate the location of indents on
the slider that prevent the standard slider bottom
bracket from falling out.
Place the slider assembly in the measured location
and install the self-drilling screws at the upper and
lower holes.
CAUTION
The arrow on the standard slider
assembly should point to the eave.
3. Remove any debris, and press the slider assembly
into place. Site window should align with the front
edge of the shingles.

screws.
