Center gutter connector over seam (4); Push down on both gutter lengths to make proper seal (5); Pull back tab, close clamp and close tab (6). Mounting gutters 1. Snap or draw a line on gutter installation surface (fascia or other) and include a slope of 5mm per meter (1/16" per foot). 2. Affix brackets to fascia on line every 2 feet, starting at 1 foot from gutter start point (to allow for end bracket / outlet, gutter connector). 3. Add end caps, outlets, corners to gutter lengths before installing. Be sure to mark and measure the lengths needed and outlet positions. 4. Place gutter lengths in brackets and secure. 5. Add gutter connectors. Mounting downpipes 1. Measure and prepare downpipe, elbows and downpipe connectors to connect to gutter outlet. 2. Consider other components in your preparations if using Y junction, collector box, s-curves, or leaf clean out pipes. 3. Mark location for and drill pilot hole for downpipe screws. Generally, plan to use 2 downpipe brackets per downpipe length. 4. Affix screws; affix bracket to screws. 5. Affix downpipe, elbows and downpipe connectors into brackets. Still have questions?
