INSTALL MAIN FRAME LEGS
Take the remaining 131P088 (88" plain) pipes and
1.
insert them into the 3-way and 4-way couplers of the
main frame.
Do not install the main frame legs during a
storm or windy day
.
HELPFUL HINT:
It's best to install the legs along one
side of the main frame and then install them on the
remaining side.
Secure each pipe in a 3-way and 4-way coupler using
2.
the locking eyebolt. If the couplers are not equipped
with locking eyebolts, secure each pipe in the coupler
using a Tek screw.
Position Tek screws so they will not
touch the main cover or end panels when these are
installed
.
After all legs are installed, consult the
3.
Must Read
document for the instructions that describe how to
install the anchor kit assemblies (#103599) and install
two anchors in the locations shown below.
This side roof cover
can hang down or can
be folded onto the main
cover during the frame
leg installation.
Plain Pipe
(#131P088)
With two (2) corners of the main frame anchored to the
4.
site, square the frame and install the side roof cover
supports and anchors.
ATTENTION:
Tighten
the anchors until snug.
DO NOT over tighten.
Anchors ware tightened
completely after all
anchors are installed.
Install two (2) anchors
at each corner
indicated by arrows.
SQUARE THE ASSEMBLED FRAME
With the frame in position, perform a final square of
1.
the frame by measuring diagonally (corner to corner)
at the bottom of the legs and verify that the two
measurements are equal. Adjust if needed.
Adjust width. Measure width from center of rafter leg to
2.
center of other rafter leg of the
same rafter assembly
.
Adjust if needed.
Examine the frame and remove any sharp edges from
3.
the frame or reposition screws so they do not come in
contact with the roof covers.
Verify that the screws used to secure the purlin pipe
4.
joints are tight and positioned so they do not touch the
covers.
NOTE:
These purlin joints and Tek screws can be
taped to protect the cover if desired.
After the frame is squared, read or reread the
5.
MUST
READ
document and continue with the assembly and
anchoring of the shelter.
NOTE:
The side roof legs are aligned with the legs of
the main frame assembly when installed correctly.
Frame shown may differ in length, used for illustration
purposes.
