Page 2: Part I. Preparing
Solar Mounting Systems I. Preparing 1. Determine the wind region of your installation site Region Definition: Wind regions are pre defined for all of Australia by Australian Standard 1170. The Wind Region has nothing to do with surrounding topography or buildings. Most of Australia is designated Region A which indicates a Regional Ultimate Basic Wind Velocity of 45msec. - Page 3 2. Determine the installation area on the roof Chiko Mounting system may be installed anywhere on a roof but fixing centres are required to be reduced at ridges and edges. The diagram below shows the area of higher wind within a (minimum of 0.2a ,0.2b and h) of a roof edge or ridge (where b and d are the plan dimension of the building).

Page 8: Ii. Feature Of The Rail And The Module
Solar Mounting Systems II. Feature of the Rail and the Module 1. Rails and modules can be installed through the top and sides, the bottom rail can be fixed by M8 hex bolts(three directions can be fixed). Module can be installed from the end to slide to the middle of the rail, also you can directly install from any part of the rail. - Page 9 4. 35-50mm depth solar panel frame can be installed by CHIKO adjustable mid clamp and adjustable end clamp, more convenient, more strong.
- Page 10 Solar Mounting Systems 5. Chiko can supply different kinds of hooks to meet different roof requirements with high quality and low cost, also can provide OEM service, and all SUS304 hooks have past salt spray test.
