rafter between joints. Maintain the gap bet-
ween the sheathing and the ridge beam where

a utility knife to cut away the shingles and
underlayment along the edge of the sheathing.
10. Insert the provided end plug into one end of the
ridge vent section. Center vent over slot. Plugg-
ed end should overlap slot in roof sheathing 6
inches. Make sure vent's support walls sit flat on
roof and that filter is secure between shingles
and vent. Snap a chalk line at each side of vent
to provide proper alignment and fit (see Fig. 4).
11. Pre -fasten first section using 2 - 2" roofing nails
through pre -drilled nail holes on each end. (Do not
nail through boss in center of vent.) Continue to
fasten remaining sections leaving 1/8" gap bet-
ween each section. Also make certain vent sup-
port walls are flat on roof and filter is secure bet-
ween shingles and vent (see Fig. 5).
12. If required, use utility knife to cut final section to
length. End of final section should overlap slot in
sheathing by 6 inches. Use factory cut tabbed end
of vent and insert provided end plug. Pre -fasten
final section in place (see Fig. 6).
13. Install: ridge shingles: to area of ridge not
covered by ridge vents. Start at the vent and work
towards roof edges (see Fig. 7).
14. Nail ridge vent cap shingles in place using 2"
roofing nails. Start at one end of vent and work
towards other end. Nail shingles in place utiliz-
ing 5" shingles exposure (see Fig. 8). Use
asphalt roofing cement or silicone based sealant
to seal between roof ridge and end caps of vent.
15. Install the closure cap at the eave joint (see Fig. 9).
