1. Layout the truss spacing. Start at the back gable. Measure from the outside face of the gable

siding when marking the location of the first truss. Important: When marking the opposite

wall, place the 'X' mark on the same side of the line so your trusses are parallel when they are

installed.

2. Using 1-1/2" hanger nails, install metal hangers to the 2x4 tie plate. The opening should line

up with the 'X' mark at the bottom of the opening, flush with the 2x4 tie plate. See Detail 'D'.
