Center the holes <br />between the rafters within 2' from the peak of the roof. Mark a 10" <br />circular outline for the hole on the roof. (Figure 1) <br />Cut and prepare the opening: <br />Cut the holes in the sheathing before applying shingles. Shingle up <br />until the first full course of shingles covers the bottom of the hole. <br />Cut the excess shingles away from the hole.

Center the leak barrier over the <br />hole. Remove release film, press into place and cut away the leak <br />barrier spanning the hole.) <br />Position the vent and nail the vent into place: <br />The top of the SSB960 has an up-arrow formed into the flashing. <br />•� Make sure the vent is in proper position. Nail the vent securely into <br />place, spacing the nails every 4" apart around the perimeter. The <br />naffs should be l"from the edge of the vent flange. Seal all seams <br />and nail heads with an approved sealant, such as silicone, roofing <br />Figure 3 •Figura 3 cement:, or waterproof caulking. (Figure 3) <br />Complete shingle installation: <br />Continue installing shingles, overlapping the flange on the vent. <br />Cut the shingles around the top of the vent to match its shape. <br />(Figure 4) <br />Figure 4 • Figura 4 <br />peak <br />pionroot act twho <br />Figure 5 • Figura 6 <br />Figure 8 • Figura 8 <br />Installation of SSB960 roof vents should com' .�, <br />ply with all local standards and regulations.. <br />CAUT10N.

Evenly space the roof vents along the width of the <br />xobf, marlring the location of all roof vents before cutting holes. <br />Center the holes between the rafters within 2' from the peak of the <br />roof- Mark a 10" circular outline for the hole on the top of shingles. <br />(Figure 5) <br />Cut and prepare the opening: <br />Using a sharp knife, cutaway the shingles (Figure 6A). Cut through <br />the sheathing using a reciprocating saw (Figure 6B). Carefully <br />remove the roofing nails within 3" of the hole. Cut the shingles at the <br />top of the hole to accommodate the shape of the roof vent. (For <br />increased weather protection on new construction or re -roofing <br />applications, use an 18"xl8" piece of GAF Weather Watch' or <br />GAF StormGuard® Leak Barrier. Center the leak barrier over the <br />hole. Remove release film press into place and cut away the leak <br />barrier spanning the hole.) <br />Position the vent: <br />Apply generous amount of silicone, roofing cement, or water- <br />proof caulking to the perimeter of the hole. (Figure 7A). Slide the <br />vent into place beneath the shingles, ensuring that the thmat of the <br />vent is centered on the hole (Figure 78). The shingles should <br />overlap the top half of the vent flange. The bottom half of the <br />vent's flange will be exposed on top of the shingles. <br />Nail the vent into place: <br />Nail the vent into place, spacing the nails every 4" around the <br />perimeter of the vent. The nails should be 1"in from the edge of <br />the vent flange. Replace nails in the shingles as necessary to ensure <br />a proper seal. Use silicone; roofing cement, or waterproof caulking <br />to seal any exposed nails.
