ROOF COVER INSTALLATION

WARNING

Do not install the roof cover onto the frame in high wind conditions.

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 8) and lay it open on the ground, parallel to the container shelter 

on one side.

NOTE: 

The inner surface of the roof cover has pockets to insert the lower tensioning tubes. 

2.  Insert the lower tensioning tubes for the roof cover (component code 7) into the pockets that are at the 

base of the roof cover, as shown in 

Figures 9 and 10.

3.  Plug both the ends of the lower tensioning tubes with the Ø32 plastic plugs for the lower tensioning tube 

(component code 12), as shown in 

Figures 9 and 10.

CAUTION

Ensure that the roof cover does not get snagged on any part of the frame as it can result in tears.
