Installing the vinyl roof
•
Before you begin to slide the awning in the slot,
apply some (Clear silicone in spray) to facilitate
this step.
•
With the help of someone else, insert the canvas in the slot. The other
one will have to pull the canvas until it is
done.
Make sure that the sewed seams
are well aligned with gables.
•
Unfold the vinyl roof and insert each
corner as well. Note that there is a
rafter strip with Velcro® for each
rafters. They will be used a as final
touch.
TIGHTENING THE VINYL ROOF
•
The white Fabreen® strip sewn on the
canvas can now be inserted in the
(Flash attachment system®) to be able
to start tensioning the vinyl. To do so,
fold the PVC strip in the grove of the
Flash attachment system® as shown
below. Follow this procedure until all 3
sides are inserted.
•
Use a little knife to cut the Fabreen® on
about 3 inches long. This cut will give you
the access to the tension screws.
•
Use a 5/16” hex wrench key to tight the
roof. Start by the middle of the front
part, then tight one side and then the
other side. When all the front tension screws are done, finish by both
side. This logical procedure is used to tight equally your roof.
