Unbend the loop of the knuckle you identified until it
is straight. Locate the corresponding knuckle at the
bottom of the Chain-Link Fence. Unbend that loop.
This single “picket” can now be removed. Lift and
rotate the picket until it is completely removed from the
fencing.
To determine how much Chain-Link Fence to remove, slide
the second Vertical Tension Rod (J) down through the
Chain-Link Fence so it will pass through the eye of the first
Eyebolt. It is the extra Chain-Link Fence on the Gate side of
the Tension Rod that must be removed. Locate and note the
top knuckle of the fence on the Gate side of the Tension
Rod. Remove the Tension Rod for now.
NOTE: After you have unrolled the Chain-Link Fence completely around the frame, you may find that
you have several extra inches of chain link that extends past the last set of Eyebolts. This excess must
be removed. Pull the Chain-Link Fence tightly past the Eyebolts to determine where to remove the
extra fencing so that the second Tension Rod (J) can be installed in Step 18.
