Instruction
For Fitting:
NOTE:
THE CUT OUT SIZE SHOULD BE 402MM X 402MM.
1.
Place the internal cap (garnish) on top the roof and draw a template using a
felt tip, then add another 5mm to the top and left side.
2.
Drill pilot holes in each corner and cut along the template line. Be certain to
avoid ribs, braces, and electrical wiring (internally).
3.
Check that the internal cap fits through the aperture If not, cut out opening
as needed and then smooth down any rough edges and primer the exposed with
metal oxide paint.
4.
Make a wooden frame around the aperture to the thickness of the interned finish
depth required, taking in to account the roof ply and lining.
5.
Glue the frame with Shield Stick and Seal (polyurethane) and clap in place and
allow the adhesive to set.
6.
Screw the internal cap to the timber frame and seal around the lip from the top
of the roof using flexible putty or Sikaflex.
7.
Place the external vent over the lip of the internal cap and mark the screw
holes with a centre punch. Then remove vent from roof and drill all screw hole
locations with a 1/16’’ pilot hole, and seal with primer paint. NOTE: If
installing a power or lighted vent, provide power source of 12 volts DC, using
18-gauge wire.
8.
Place putty strips/ Sikaflex flex bead around the opening on roof ½’’
(1.27cm) from edge of opening. (Be sure putty strips cover entire area to be
sealed.) Use double layers of putty strip or extra Sikaflex, if necessary, to
seal ribbed areas.
9.
Insert vent into opening on top of putty strips.
10.
Use a screwdriver or nail to locate and line up corner drilled holes with the
corner screw holes in vent frame. CAUTION: Install vent with lid hinge side
toward front of vehicle. Screw corner screws first to hold vent in place then
screw all remaining vent mounting screws. Tighten just enough to compress putty
tape. Over-tightening may cause Plastic Base Vents to crack.
11.
Using the appropriate roof coating for your roof surface, coat screw heads and
vent frame edge and seal around the frame if necessary.
12.
Your installation is complete If you are retrospectively fitting the roof vent
you must take care when cutting the aperture as not to damage the existing head
lining and leave enough to cover the timber frame if required.
PLEASE NOTE: ALL ROOF VENTS SHOULD BE INSTALLED BY
A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN.
