2� Remove Tension Clips
Insert the tip of a standard flathead
screwdriver into the recess located
at the backside of the tension clip
( Figure 15 ). Rotate or tilt the screwdriver
to separate the tension clip teeth
away from the frame. This will allow the
tension clip to be removed from the
frame by prying or pulling it up and out.
Slide the mandrel out of the tension
clip to release the mesh.
3� Attach New Mesh
When ordered through Daktronics, the
mesh has a line with a series of tick marks printed
on the front ( Figure 16 ). These tick marks indicate
the location of the tension clips and mandrels.
a� Place a mandrel, smooth side up, centered on
the tick mark.
b� Fold the mesh around the mandrel. Ensure the
groove in the mandrel is towards the inside of
the mesh ( Figure 17 ).
c� Snap a tension clip over the mandrel and mesh ( Figure 18 ). Do not try to drive
both ends of the clip down onto the mandrel and fabric at the same time; snap
one end down and then the other.
Push screwdriver
into recess on back of
Tension Clip and rotate/tilt
