7. After all pipes are seated into the proper fittings and the slip tee fittings
are in place and slide freely on the long pipes, carefully lift the cover
frame and set it on the base frame (E).
8. Adjust the frame as needed so that it fits the base. Use a light hammer
to tap the frame fittings to adjust length if needed.
Do not damage the
fittings.
9. After dry fitting the cover frame to the base frame, remove the cover
frame from the base and install Tek screws to secure the pipes in the
4-way fittings as shown below (F).
NOTE:
Do not over tighten the screws. Doing so may strip the threads
in the hole cut by the self-tapping Tek screw.
10. Locate the pipes needed for the mid rafter or rafters: #08R105P2 and
#08R105S1. With the pipes properly seated, secure the rafter using
FA4482 Tek screws (G).
11. Install the remaining rafter or rafters by inserting the rafter ends into the
slip tee fittings on the long frame pipes.
12. Evenly space the middle rafter (or rafters for the 105146) between the
two ends and
secure the rafter to the fitting and the fitting to the frame
pipe using Tek screws
(H).
ATTENTION:
Consult the All Frame Diagrams for additional information
and dimensions.
When installing the Tek
screws, it may be helpful
to use a drill to start
the screw and to keep
it in place during the
installation.
