The TileTrac ® TT-18S is in- <br />tended for use on comp roofs and the Tile- <br />Trac ® TT-18T is intended for use on tile <br />roofs. <br />Note: The TileTrac ® is not recommended for <br />clay tile roofs. <br />Symbol Legend <br />Explanation or Install Tip <br />Important Product <br />Performance Information <br />Critical for Safety <br />WARNING <br />All Professional Solar Products (ProSolar) are engi- <br />neered and tested to withstand stated specifica- <br />tions (as stated on published specification sheets) <br />when installed properly. Failure to install properly <br />may decrease the performance of the installation. <br />SAFETY <br />All regional safety requirements should be followed when <br />installing ProSolar Products. All tools and equipment located <br />on the roof should be secured to avoid falling object haz- <br />ards. All equipment/tools should be properly maintained <br />and inspected prior to use. Any exposed studs should be <br />protectively capped to help avoid injury. This installation <br />manual is intended for use by professional installers with a <br />working knowledge of construction principles. <br />Tool List <br />•Chalk line <br />•Cordless rotary hammer drill with 3/8” carbide masonry bit (for concrete <br />roof tile drilling). <br />•Cordless standard drill with 3/16” long drill bit (for lag bolt pilot hole) <br />•Cordless standard drill with 1/4” carbide masonry bit (for breaking <br />through composition roof shingle surface only; NOT FOR PILOT HOLE) <br />•Cordless impact wrench with 1/2” socket <br />•Mastic or roof sealant recommended: Tripolymer based, such as <br />Geocel 2300 <br />•Lumber Crayon <br />•3/16” T-handle hex key (for composition shingle roof) <br />•Precision electronic stud sensor <br />•Dead-blow hammer (approx. 20 oz) <br />® <br />Use of a Rotary <br />Hammer drill is <br />highly recom- <br />mended. A Rotary <br />Hammer drill (est. <br />retail: $500-$700) reduces <br />concrete roof tile drill time <br />to approx. 2 seconds. A <br />hammer drill (est. retail: <br />$250) will dramatically in- <br />crease drill time to over one <br />minute. Use of a standard <br />drill will increase time to <br />approx. 10 minutes. <br />2510 N. Hathaway <br />St05/26/22
