2. Assemble two main cover conduits. Each conduit
assembly consists of two (2) 75" swaged pipe and one
(1) 72" plain pipe with Tek screw used to secure the
joint.
This conduit length will be the length of the frame
(on-center measurement).
NOTE:
Apply duct tape (customer-supplied) over the
Tek screws to prevent damage to main cover pocket.
These cover conduits are inserted into the pockets
sealed along the sides of the main cover. The conduits
are used to tighten and secure the main cover.

each end panel corner with a ratchet attached to the end
conduit. The straps to secure the ends of the main cover
come pre-installed.
