INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Tools Required - Gloves, metal snips, pliers.
- Place clips every 30 – 40 cm along the underside of the solar panel frame. Hold the flat tip of the rod, slide the clip under the panel then hook the frame and pull tight.
- Roll out the mesh and cut into 2 metre sections for easier handling. Position the mesh in place, making sure the fastening rod points upwards so it keeps a downward pressure on the mesh to create a firm barrier to the roof. Allow the bottom to flare out and curve along the roof, this ensures rodents and birds cannot access under the
- mesh.
- Attach the fastening washer and push firmly to the end to tightly secure the mesh.
- When joining the next section of mesh, overlay approximately 10 cm and join the two pieces with cable ties to create a complete barrier.
- For outer corners: cut upwards from the bottom until the bend point. Cut a section of mesh to cover any gaps using cable ties to fix the corner piece in place.
- For inner corners: cut the mesh upwards from the bottom until the bend point, secure any overlay sections together using cable ties.
