SPANNVORRICHTUNG:
MIT EINEM 6
mm
BZW. 4
mm
PES SEIL UND EINEM PROFISEILSPANNER
Einfache und sehr effektive Verspannung eines Sonnensegels, die jederzeit wieder lösbar ist.
Achtung: Zur Sicherheit muß nach der Klemme das Seil zusätzlich mit einem halben Schlag
bzw. mit einem Knoten nochmals gesichert werden.
In opposition to a wooden plate or a roof, sail cloth is a flexible ma-
terial. When tensioning the sunsail pay attention to do this exactly in
the center of all attachment points. Even small shifts of the sunsail
in one direction lead to shifts in the balance of powers in the sunsail
and are crucial facts for wrinkling, sagging or varying tension of the
sunsail edges.
Check the deflection of your masts.
Diameter, material strength and height of the masts are crucial fac-
tors for the stiffness of a mast. However, masts always yield a bit
depending on size, weight of fabric and tensioning strength of the
sunsail.
Corrective measures: if you did not measure the sunsail in pre-ten-
sioned condition of the masts, resp. too little scope was considered
for the tensioning, you can pretty easily solve this problem by clam-
ping the masts backwards by means of ropes/wire ropes and thus
giving the masts additional stability, resp. bringing them back into
the original condition.
3. DOES THE SUNSAIL WRINKLE STRON-
GLY IN TENSIONED CONDITION?
4. THE SUNSAIL IS NOT HANGING TIGHT-
LY STRETCHED BETWEEN THE MASTS.
Wrong
The sunsail is lying beyond the center
and cannot be tensioned properly.
The consequence is wrinkling.
Wrong
The consequence is wrinkling
