26a: Remove the backing strip from the foam rubber
wedge and stick into place on the side pieces using
the self adhesive strips.
26b: Position into side pieces as shown.
27: Replace tiles up to the edge of the collector(s).
If necessary the tiles should be cut to the
appropriate size using an angle grinder. The tiles
over the top cover sections must project over the
cover sections by between 80mm to 140mm.
28: For slate tile roofs the edge of the slates should be
butted against the centre up stand of the side
flashing pieces. Light pressure should be applied to
compress the foam strip whilst the slate is secured
to the roof frame.
29: Adjust the lead skirting (used for profiled tiles only)
to follow the contours of the tiles.
