▪ Apply sealing tape along the bottom and top End-lap (if there is), along screws centerline or two tapes on
both sides of screw centerline.
▪ Pre-drill 10mm holes at crests and valleys where screws are positioned.
▪ Start fastening the screws from the first side-lap (left) through the pre-drilled holes
Roof Fixing: Start fastening the screws on the lower edge purlin (End-lap), on each corrugation crest (1).
▪ Fasten screws at the internal purlins, at each corrugation crest, starting at the same side.
▪ Wall Fixing: Start fastening the screws on the lower edge purlin (End-lap), in the valleys on both
sides of each corrugation (2). At the side laps fix the crests.
▪ Fasten screws at the internal purlins, in the valleys, one screw at each corrugation side(3)
▪ Do not over-tighten!
• Fasten the stitching screws at every 300-400 mm through the sheets between the purlins (4).

▪ Use jigsaw or circular saw with fine tooth blades.
▪ Apply high blade speed with moderate feeding rate.
▪ Support the sheets near the cutting line.
▪ Clean the dust and cutting chips after cutting.
Fastening Tips
▪ Use adjustable electric screwdriver.
▪ The screw must be installed perpendicular to the PALRUF sheet.
▪ Important: Do not over-tighten.
