CROSS BRACING
COVER ATTACHMENT
9.
Roll out a large drop cloth next to the assembled frame to protect the cover from dirt and abrasion.
10.
Lay out two-piece covers with lace edges together and top side up.
Matching centerlines, start in the center by pushing the first lacing
loop up through the corresponding grommet.
(See diagram) Continue
lacing process and tie off last long lacing loop. Cover lacing with
protective flap and secure the hook-n-loop closure. Repeat lacing
procedure on the opposite side.
11.
Loosely pull the cover over the frame. Check the corners, hip areas and crowns to make sure the cover is
positioned correctly on the frame. Temporarily strap the cover at the corners and side (if required) of the frame
to keep any wind from catching the cover.
ADDING LEGS AND LIFTING
12.
Lay out the (7’-9’) Adjustable Legs at each Corner Fitting and at each Mid-Rafter Fitting location. Leave
the adjustable Legs at the shortest length. Starting at the two corners of the longer side of the frame, two
installers should lift the corner Legs to their vertical position. Then together lift the entire side of the tent frame
and insert the Corner Fittings onto the corner Legs until the snap button engages.
(Do not lift one corner at
time; lift the entire side of the tent.)
Insert Legs into the side Mid-Rafter Fittings along the same elevated side
until the snap button engages.
13.
Repeat the above procedure for inserting the Legs on the opposite side of the frame. Then insert Legs into the
side Mid-Rafter Fittings along the shorter side until the snap button engages.
