INSTALL THE MAIN COVER SIDE STRAPS

The side straps wrap around slits created in the side conduit pocket. The strap 

ends of each strap are then fed into each side ratchet attached to the rafter legs 

and slightly tightened to keep the cover in position.

Required parts and tools:

2" yellow bulk strap (The following photos may show a different strap; 

• 

procedure is the same.) Some shelters ship with individual straps.
Tool to cut slits in cover conduit pockets

• 

Complete these steps to install the side straps:

Move to one side ratchet attached to a rafter and cut a slit in the 

1. 

conduit 

pocket

 just above the conduit and in line with the ratchet. 

Photos show using a utility knife to 

cut a slit above the conduit, which has 

been inserted into the main cover side 

pocket. Cover, rafter, and frame design 

differ from actual shelter. Procedure is 

the same. 

 

NOTE:

 If ropes were used at these 

locations when the main cover was 

pulled in place, a slit in the cover 

pocket may already be present.  

NOTE:

 Do not tighten completely at this 

time.

Frame and ratchet location differ from actual 

frame. Steps to install the main cover are 

similar however. 

Feed one end through the slot in the cover pocket and around the conduit.

3. 

Feed both ends of the strap through the slot in the ratchet and slightly 

4. 

tighten the ratchet.

Repeat the previous steps to install and slightly tighten the remaining 

5. 

straps.

After all side security straps are in place and slightly tightened and the 

6. 

cover is centered evenly on the frame, complete the following steps to 

install the PVC conduit and strapping for the stretch pocket of the cover.

NOTE:

 Do not tighten completely  

at this time. 

When creating the slit in the pocket for the strap, 

do not cut the main cover. 

Cut only the pocket material.

Using the ratchet and conduit positions as guides, measure and cut a tie 

2. 

down strap from the bulk yellow strap that shipped with the building. Some 

straps are shipped pre-cut. 

NOTE:

 Cut the strap length so that 

the strap can wrap around the cover 

conduit and both ends can be inserted 

into the ratchet.
