SOLARIG™ TUNNEL KIT
Installation Manual for Model Alpine-135

Instructions:
1.
Spread out the cover on one side of the tunnel. Fold the cover in accordion style and
lay it along the tunnel structure. If the roof includes a curtain, take into
consideration its orientation.
2.
Connect three 15m ropes to one long side of the cover and throw them over the
tunnel structure.
3.
Three people pull these ropes to get the cover over the tunnel top. Two people
stand between the cover and the tunnel at the corners, releasing and pushing the
cover. A responsible person coordinates the entire process from within the tunnel,
pushing up with a padded stick where necessary to avoid snagging and tearing the
cover. This process is sensitive and must be handled with care.
4.
Move the front and back sides over the arcs and anchor them with ropes to stakes
close to the corner poles. It is important to keep the cover centred so that the
surplus is equal on both sides.
5.
Repeat the stretching several times until the anchoring ropes are perfectly stretched
and the excess cover is equally distributed on both ends.
