Introduction
How it Works
All ShadeFX systems utilize the patented single-track drive system. Fabric panels of the canopy assembly are
extended or retracted as the lead carrier and wing travel along the drive beam.
The Importance of Proper Assembly
Proper assembly will preserve the life of your ShadeFX Retractable Freestanding Canopy. Inadequate assembly
may result in avoidable and expedited wear on the system’s components. The assembly instructions outlined in
this guide are intended to assist with the successful deployment of your Freestanding Canopy.
It is recommended that a complete review of the assembly guide be conducted prior to assembly. If there are
questions regarding assembly that are not addressed in the guide, please contact ShadeFX before continuing.
Proper Handling
Proper care must be taken when handling the product during assembly as contact with hard, sharp or abrasive
surfaces could result in deformation, scratches or rips in the fabric and components of the system.
It is important to handle your canopy assembly with care, especially when lifting the canopy onto the structure. It
is recommended to work in a group of at least two people.
