Step 8 - Replace the shingles
Use a framing square to cut the replacement shingles to size. (g. 34) Generally, you will want to ret each row so that they
overlap the ashing up to 1/2 inch from the inner edge of the dome frame as shown in (g. 35) Trim excess material from
shingles so they can t all around with the same 1/2 inch gap. (g. 36) Use roong nails and adhesive to re-attach the shingles.
For ideal t and nish, we recommend covering the ashing with shingles leaving only the bottom center area of the ashing
exposed as shown. (g. 37)

Step 9 - Secure the ex tube to
the diffuser housing
Gently maneuver the ex tube through the diffuser housing
making sure not to force it over the retaining band screw posts.
(g. 38a) (g. 38b) You will need to compress the ex tube
inward to clear each screw post as you pull it down.
(g. 39) It is important to not puncture the ex tube as you
go through this step.
Pull the tube down through the housing until it is fully
extended. It is important to pull the ex tube as tight as
possible for the best light transmission. (g. 40)

Retaining band and hardware
Once the ex tube is in the desired position, poke the 3 retaining band screw posts through the ex material so they are exposed,
then compress the retaining band and insert it into the ex tube. (g. 41) Attach the center hole of the retaining band onto one
of the screw posts. (g. 42) Overlap the outer slots of the retaining band and attach to the corresponding post. Then hand the
remaining slot onto the remaining post. (g. 43) Carefully attach the retaining band hardware to each post and tighten with pliers or
an adjustable wrench. (g. 44)
