Align the edges of the modules and snug them together (Fig.21,page 22). Trim the rails to the total width of the modules to be mounted. Place a rail adjacent to the outer mounting holes. Orient the footing bolt slot outward. Place a clip slot adjacent to the mounting holes,following the arrangement you selected earlier. Assemble the clips,mounting bolts,and flange nuts. Torque the flange nuts to 10 foot-pounds. [3.3.4] Installing the module-rail assembly Bring the module-rail assembly to the installation site.
