10 After all the anchors are installed and tightened and
the poly strip is seated properly at the back of the
front bar, release the safety chains at the "S" hook
locations (E)
, and slowly lower
the front bar to apply tension to the canopy cover
11 When the front bar is self supporting, check the
locations of the canopy cover's corners. Make sure
there are no hang ups of fabric The corners must fit
properly so heavy loads (eg snow, ice) do not tear
the canopy fabric
After the corners are correct, bounce the header up
and down slightly by pushing up on the front bar a
maximum of about 1/2in [13mm] This helps pull the
fabric in the pocket around the front bar

Front Bar
Height Off Grade
12 Measure height to bottom of front bar off grade and
compare to value in the PAF If the front bar needs to
be raised, adjust the pin location (I) in the pivot arm
extension
NOTE:
Typically, the bottom of the front bar is at least
12in [305mm] higher than the tallest trailer height
Each hole raises the front bar height ≈ 2 1/4in [206mm]
compared to the adjacent hole
13 Caulk along the entire edge of the canopy top at the
building wall, making sure the ends are covered
Use a flexible caulk (appropriate for the conditions
and materials/surfaces being joined)
14 Pull the canopy cover end caps (located at each end)
down to cover the side frame
Attach the end cap to the side frame backer using one
of the screws holding on the mounting bracket
NOTE:
Attach the touch and hold fastener tab at the
bottom, inside of the end cap to the mating touch and
hold fastener near the front of the side pad Secure so
the end cap continues to lay flat and unwrinkled.
After side curtain installation, this tab will end up being
clamped between the touch and hold fasteners on the
side pad and the side curtain
