ATTACH MAIN COVER

Gather the parts:

Main cover (with conduits inserted)

• 

Ropes (provided by customer) or strap long enough to reach over the frame

• 

Box cutter or utility knife 

• 

WARNING:

 

To prevent damage and injury, do not leave the cover 

unattended if it has not been properly secured.

 The ropes can be used to 

temporarily keep the cover from blowing off the frame.

Assembly Procedure

To pull the cover over the frame, attach ropes or straps to both ends of the 

1. 

cover conduit positioned 

furthest from the frame (or on top of a fan-folded 

cover)

. Wrap the rope around the conduit to prevent it from slipping off. 

NOTE:

 It may be necessary to attach 

additional ropes to the cover conduit 

between the end ropes by cutting a small 

opening in the cover pocket and tying the 

rope around the conduit. DO NOT cut 

through the main cover. 

Cut through the 

conduit pocket only.

Once the main cover is pulled into position, center the cover on the frame 

4. 

(end-to-end and side-to-side).  

 

WARNING:

 

To prevent damage and injury, do not leave the cover 

unattended if it has not been properly secured.

 

Locate the black straps at the front and rear hems and feed the straps 

5. 

through the center slot in each end ratchet (QH1061). Operate the ratchet 

to wrap the strap onto the center hub just enough to keep the strap secure.   

NOTE:

 Use lifts 

and additional 

assistants (if 

needed) to help 

pull the cover 

up and over the 

frame.

Shelter shown above may be a different style or length.

NOTE:

 Do not tighten completely at this time. This helps to temporarily

6. 

help hold the cover.
Continue with the installation of the side straps.

7.

 Cover shown 

may differ from the

2. 

cover toward the base of the assembled frame. (Skip if cover is fan-folded.)
Set the conduit down, toss the ropes over the frame, and pull the cover into 

3. 

position. Position one person at each rope. 

Verify that the cover pockets are 

to the inside of the building. This will be the underside of the cover when it 

is pulled into position on the frame.
