2. Mark out the area for the vent on the two slates directly below the vent. Remove and cut the slates as required
3. Mark the underlay diagonally, cut and pin back to surrounding battens and rafters. If required an additional underlay seal is available.
4. Fix the cut slates into position directly below the vent leaving the underlay opening exposed.
5. Slide the vent spigot into the opening . Using the centre line on the vent, align with the joint line of the two slates directly below. Fix vent by nailing through centre nail holes.
6. Fix slates either side of the vent, ensuring that they overlap the side flashing by the correct distance. Continue to fix subsequent slate courses as normal.
