Instructions / Assembly
STEP 57: ROOF STARTERS
1: Place the 1 x 5 x 52" (groove only) Roof Starter boards at the peak of the roof. Measure at
the bottom of the roof supports. In this case for example the measurement is 47-3/8". After
you install the Roof Starters the dimension at the top should be 47-3/8" also. (The dimension
between the Roof Supports for your set could vary from the 47-3/8" mentioned below.)
2: The Roof Starters should be placed as close together as possible near the peak without
the boards overlapping.
3: Fasten the Roof Starters to the Roof Supports with #8 x 1-1/2" wood screws.
