INSTALLING THE ROOF COVER
NOTE:
A slight breeze is the most advantageous for roof cover installation. To take advantage of the breeze, gently
pull the cover up over the arches using ropes, with breeze blowing in the cover like a sail filled with air.
1. Unpack the roof cover (component code 13) and lay it open on the ground, parallel to the assembled
frame on one side.
2. Pull the roof cover over the frame evenly, carefully, and slowly as shown in Figure 7. You can tie ropes to
one end of the roof cover and pull it over the frame, if required.
WARNING
:
Never leave the roof cover unattached under any circumstances until the final assembly and tighten-
ing have been completed.
NOTE:
Ensure that the roof cover does not get snagged on any part of the frame as it can result in tears.
3. Adjust the cover such that it is evenly centred on the frame, and smoothen to remove all wrinkles on the
cover.
4. Knit the lower end of the roof cover to the lowest horizontal connecting tubes using ropes, as shown in
Figure 7.
NOTE:
Ensure that you do not over tighten the lacings.
