3. Attach the

GRIPPERFIX Rail to the clamps: Align the two S-5-

Tab CF that were inserted into the rail in step 2, such that they set

atop the clamps, and the GRIPPERFIX Rail rests on the ribs of the

roof (Fig. 3). The rail should be centered left to right with equal

cantilever. Using 16 mm M8-1.25 Hex ange bolts (provided with

clamps), attach the tabs to the clamps. Bolts should be threaded

into clamp but left loose at this point to allow for adjustability.

4. Installing the remaining two clamps and

GRIPPERFIX

Rail: Measure the center to center distance between upslope

and downslope mounting points on the condenser units feet.

Install the second row of clamps on the roof following the

same procedure from step 1, so that the bolt slots atop the two

GRIPPERFIX Rails are the same distance (from eave to ridge) apart

as the distance between the condenser unit’s mounting points

when mounted to the clamps. Place the two GRIPPERFIX rails

on the clamps with both S-5-Tab CF resting atop the clamps.

Each GRIPPERFIX Rail should be on the side of the clamp that is

nearest the opposing set of clamps (Fig. 4). Using M8-1.25 x 16

mm Hex ange bolts (provided with clamps), attach the tabs

to the clamps. The Slotted Holes on the S-5-Tab CF allow for

adjustability should clamp placement be slightly o. Bolts should

be threaded into clamp but left loose at this point to allow for

adjustment later, when placing the condenser unit.

5. Slide M8-1.25 x 40 mm Bolts into Bolt Slot and place

Damper Pads: Slide (2) M8-1.25 x 40 mm bolts into the top slot

of each

GRIPPERFIX Rail (Fig. 5). Measure the center to center

horizontal distance between mounting holes on the condenser

unit’s feet. Position M8-1.25 x 40 mm bolts such that they align

with mounting holes of the condenser unit centered on the

GRIPPERFIX Rail. Place Damper Pads over the shafts of the inserted

bolts.

6. Place condenser unit mounting holes over M8-1.25 x 40

mm Bolts atop Damper Pads and Fix to

GRIPPERFIX Rail: Some

adjustment of the M8-1.25 x 40 mm Bolts & Damper Pads may

be necessary to align with mounting holes of condenser unit.

Additional Damper Pads can be added to the downslope

mounting locations to level the condenser unit if necessary.

Place the mounting holes on the feet of the condenser unit over

the M8-1.25 x 40 mm bolts. Thread the M8-1.25 Nuts onto the

M8-1.25 x 40 mm Bolts. Nuts should be torqued to 18 Nm (160

in lbs). Bolts atop clamps that were left loose in steps 3-4 should

now be torqued to 18 Nm (160 in lbs). (Fig. 6)
