ASSEMBLE 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 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 and install the crank assembly.
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.
INSTALL CRANK ASSEMBLIES
Gather the parts:
• Pipe 1.315" x 73.5" plain (#131P0735)
• Spin handle (#103395)
• Universal joint (#103396)
• Remaining #CC6212 fabric clips (half for each side)
After all end panels are attached and the main cover is
secured to the frame, attach the crank assemblies for the
roll-up sides.
Assembly Procedure
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.
ATTENTION:
A few inches of the conduit should extend
beyond the edge of the cover, this is where the crank
will be attached. See diagram above.
3. Evenly space the fabric clips to secure the main cover
to the cover conduit.
4. Attach the universal joint to the conduit in the pocket
using a Tek screw to secure the connection.
