Double-Lok® ERECTION SEQUENCE
Step 6


• Position the clip over the male leg of the panel as shown, and rotate clip downward.
• With the upper clip firmly seated, position the base firmly against the purlin flange.
• When properly positioned, the vertical legs of the upper and lower sections of the clip will be pointed upward, as shown.

CLIP INSTALLATION

Before installing the first clip, clamp the male side of the panel to the side of the back-up plate with a pair of vise grips. This will help maintain panel module at the endlaps.

Install a clip on the male leg of the panel at the endlap. This should be the first clip installed as it controls the 24" module for the remainder of the panel. Remove vise grips and install clips on all remaining purlins.

FASTENER REQUIREMENTS

Purlins- Fastener #1
Joists- Fastener #6
(Two fasteners per clip)

CAUTION
For UL 90 Roofs, see Page 4.

CAUTION

The panel clip has factory applied mastic in the upper lip. This mastic is compressed when the clip is rotated in place. If, for some reason, a clip must be removed, a new clip must be used.

IMPORTANT

As each clip is installed, maintain a 24" panel module.

NOTE

The floating clip is designed so it can only be properly seated when the upper portion of the clip (the tab) is centered on the base.
