TWIST-OF-THE-WRIST ASSEMBLY (CONTINUED)
15. Attach the rolled conduit to the square shaft of the
assembly by inserting a carriage bolt through the hole
in the conduit and tubing adapter. Tighten the nut.
16. Attach the crank handle to the Twist-of-the-Wrist
assembly. (End panel is not shown in the above
diagram.)
17. Test the operation of the Twist-of-the-Wrist assembly
and repeat the steps for the remaining assembly.
NOTE:
If the cover rolls in the desired direction, but
you want to turn the crank in the opposite direction for
the same result, unbolt, reposition the gearbox, and
remount it on the same side of the mounting bracket.
INSTALL ANTI-BILLOW ROPES
Gather the Parts:
• Eyebolts (FA2061)
• Anti-Billow rope
• Nut (FALB01B) and Washer (FAME50B)
INSTALL ANTI-BILLOW ROPES IN SHORT SECTIONS
ALONG EACH SIDE OF THE FRAME. DO NOT INSTALL
AS A SINGLE ROPE.
Complete the following steps:
ATTENTION:
The procedure that follows is applicable
when the frame was constructed using wood boards under
each rafter foot, or if baseboards were installed. If the
shelter was constructed on concrete footings, a concrete
slab, or on bare ground, alternative steps must be taken
by the owner during the following procedure to anchor the
lower ends of the anti-billow ropes.
Additional parts may be
required and must be supplied by the customer.
1. Using the Twist-of-the-Wrist assembly, roll up the
sidewall so that it is a few inches above the ground.
2. Drill a 3/8" hole into the wood baseboard at the base of
the end rafter where the Twist-of-the-Wrist assembly is
located, insert an eyebolt through the hole, and secure
the eyebolt with a nut and washer.
Diagram may show a different frame used for illustration
purposes only.
NOTE:
If the poly latch U-Channel was attached to
a ribbon board (as suggested), the eyebolt can be
mounted through the poly latch channel and ribbon
board.
4. Attach the remaining eyebolts using the diagram below
as a pattern guide.
5. Once all eyebolts are installed in the proper locations,
install the anti-billow rope
in short lengths along each
side
. Thread the free end of the rope through the end
rafter eyebolts and the eyebolts at two to three interior
rafters.
ATTENTION:
If no wood baseboard is present as
required, additional steps must be take to anchor
the lower portion of the anti-billow ropes. (Contact
Customer Service at 1-800-245-9881 to purchase
additional parts if needed.)
3. Move up the same end rafter and drill a 3/8" hole
through the poly latch U-Channel and rafter leg, insert
an eyebolt through the hole, and secure the eyebolt
with a nut (FALB01B) and washer (FAME50B).
