STRUT INSTALLATION — FRAME SIDES AT EACH END
There are four (4) side struts for the frame. Struts are positioned between end rafters and first interior rafter. Gather parts:
• Struts (See Quick Start section for part identification.)
• Band Clamps (QH1402) — 2 per strut. (Installed earlier during frame assembly steps.)
Complete these steps to install struts:
1. Review diagrams in Quick Start section for additional details.
2. Attach strut upper end to end rafter band clamp. (Install clamp if needed.) Adjust strut position so lower end of strut
reaches band clamp on second rafter. (Install that band clamp too if needed.)
