SETTING-UP THE GRAINSHADE (OUTDOOR INSTALLATION)
6.3.1.
Ensure that the poles are rigid and stable:
a.
Use poles (pipe, lumber, or bamboo) at
least 1.5 meters from each corner and
1.0 meter higher than the Cocoon Cargo.
b.
Connect the corners of the GrainShade
to the apex of the poles, maintaining at
least 1-meter clearance between the top
surface of the Cocoon Cargo and the
GrainShade.
c.
Additional guy wires might be used to reinforce the pole by tying the top. The other end is pegged
to the ground away from the pole.
6.3.2.
If poles are not available, tie the GrainShade to nearby posts, walls, tree branches, or pegs for support.

To prevent the GrainShade from sagging and flapping during rain and strong wind, install wire or rope
beneath and above the GrainShade.
