INSTALL THE ROLL-UP SIDE CONDUIT

Gather the parts:
•  Pipe 1.315'' x 75'' Swaged 17 GA (#131S075) 
•  Pipe 1.315'' x 73.5'' Plain 17 GA (#131P0735)
•  Tek Screws  

The roll-up side conduit assembly is attached to the bottom 

of the roll-up side cover material. This assembly runs the 

length of the frame and serves as the center pipe that the 

roll-up cover wraps around when it is opened to ventilate 

the shelter. 

This conduit is identical to the purlins that were 

assembled and attached to the frame. 

 

Complete these steps to assemble the roll-up side conduit.
1.  Locate all sections of pipe needed to assemble the 

cover conduit.

2.  Insert the swaged end of each pipe into the plain end of 

another pipe until the conduit is assembled.

3.  Secure each pipe joint with a Tek screw.

INSTALL THE ROLL-UP SIDE ASSEMBLIES

The instructions below describe how to install a single  

roll-up sidewall assembly for one side of the frame. The 

procedure is repeated for the remaining side.

The procedures to install the roll-up side include the

following:
1.  Assemble the roll-up side conduit.
2.  Attach the roll-up conduit to the bottom of the main 

cover.

3.  Assemble the Twist-of-the-Wrist assembly and attach it 

to the frame and the roll-up side.

4.  Install the Anti-Billow Rope system.
5.  Test the operation of the roll-up side.

4.  Place the assembled conduit at the base of the side 

where the end of the main cover is located. 

 

NOTE:

 Duct tape Tek screws to prevent damage to 

main cover.

5.  Continue with the procedure that follows to attach the 

conduit to the main cover.

ATTACH CONDUIT TO MAIN COVER ROLL-UP SIDE

Gather the parts:
•  Assembled conduits
•  Fabric Clips #CC6212 (Divide quantity in half.)
•  Tek screws  

To this point, the main cover should be secured to the 

frame and the excess cover along both sides should be 

hanging down along the side of the frame.
1.  Unfold the remaining portion of the main cover (if 

needed) and evenly stretch it out on the ground along 

the frame.

2.  Working from the inside the frame

, roll the assembled 

cover conduit onto the edge of the main cover.

3.  Verify that the cover and conduit are evenly positioned 

and tuck the cover edge under the conduit and rotate 

the conduit 1-2 times to wrap the cover around it.

4.  Secure the cover material to the conduit with Tek 

screws and fabric clips evenly spaced along the 

conduit.

5.  Continue to roll the conduit until the excess cover 

material is wound around the conduit.

6.  With the excess cover material rolled up on the conduit 

assembly, continue with the 

Twist-of-the-Wrist 

Assembly

 procedure.
