3. Repeat the steps and continue to assemble and feed
the PVC conduit into the pocket.
4. Once the PVC conduit is fully assembled, secured at
the joints, and inserted into the pocket, repeat the steps
for the remaining end of the main cover.
5. With both PVC conduits assembled and installed, verify
that the cover is centered on the frame (side-to-side
and end-to-end) and move to one end rafter.
6. Take the rope or strap used to pull the cover and cut a
few sections long enough to tie the PVC conduit to the
end rafter in evenly spaced locations. See example in
the photo below.
Photo shows temporary straps tied between the PVC
conduit and the end rafter to keep the main cover centered
on the frame as the strapping at the other end of the frame
is installed. Cover used for illustration only. Actual cover
may differ from what is shown.

7. Move to the end of the frame opposite the end where
the temporary straps were tied, take one end of the
bulk roll of 1" strapping, and weave it around the end
rafter and PVC conduit.
8. Continue weaving the strap around the end rafter and
PVC conduit working up and over the rafter and down
to the other end of the PVC conduit.
NOTE:
Keep the strapping snug during this step, but
do not over tighten. Also, maintain a even distance
between the top of the end rafter and the PVC conduit.
Photo shows how to weave strap around the conduit inside
the main cover pocket and the end rafter. (Cover and rafter
shown differs from actual cover.) Distance between the
conduit in the pocket and the end rafter is even.
9. After weaving the strapping, cut the strap and tie it to
the end rafter to temporarily secure it.
10. Take the remainder of the bulk strap roll, move to the
other end of the frame, and repeat the steps to weave
the strap between the PVC conduit and the top of the
end rafter.
NOTE:
The temporary rope or straps at this end can be
removed once the main strapping is in place.
11. After the strap is completely installed at this end, cut
the strap to length and tie it to the end rafter.
