INSTALL THE MAIN COVER SIDE STRAPS
The side straps wrap around slits in the conduit pocket. The
strap ends of each strap are then fed into each side ratchet
(attached to the purlin brackets on the inside of the frame)
and slightly tightened.
Required parts and tools:
• 2" yellow bulk strap
• Tool to cut slits in cover conduit pockets
Complete these steps to install the side straps:
1. Move to one side ratchet (attached to the inside of the
frame) and cut a slit in the
conduit pocket
above the
conduit and
in line with the ratchet
.
Photos below show using a utility knife to cut a slit
above the conduit, which is inside the conduit pocket.
NOTE:
When cutting the slit in the pocket for the strap,
do not cut the main cover; cut only the pocket material.
2. Using the ratchet and conduit positions as guides,
measure and cut a tie down strap from the bulk yellow
strap that shipped with the building. Straps run from the
ratchet, up and around the cover conduit, and back to
the ratchet.
NOTE:
Cut the strap length so that the strap can
wrap around the cover conduit and both ends can be
inserted into the ratchet.
3. After cutting the strap, feed one end through the slot
in the cover pocket, around the conduit, and align the
strap ends.
4. Feed both ends through the slot in the center drum
of the ratchet and slightly tighten the ratchet.
Do not
tighten completely at this time.
5. Repeat the previous steps to install and slightly tighten
the remaining straps.
6. After installing all side straps and with the cover
centered evenly on the frame, trim the hem area of the
main cover for the roll-up side.
