Step 21
Attaching the Hip Rafters
Pro Tip: Hip Rafters are 50" long, Mid
Rafters are 47" long. To avoid mistakes,
lay rafters out side by side and group by
length prior to assembly.
Position the four 50" Hip Rafters [13] at
each corner of the roof box header
assembly as shown in Diagram 21.
Make sure the hip rafters are positioned
with the cleats out and to the ground.
See inset of Diagram 21. You are actual-
ly assembling the unit upside down.
Pro Tip: You will need an assistant for
this next step.
Step 22
Have an assistant hold a hip rafter in
place while you align it flush with the
upper edge of the roof box header
assembly. Attach each hip rafter to the
roof box with two 2-1/2" screws as
shown in Diagram 22.
Note: You are working on the underside
of the roof box header. Make sure the hip
rafter is flush with the bottom of the roof
box header.
