Step 18 - Preparing the top lock brackets
A
Before installing the top lock brackets, use the adjust-
ing screw to adjust the tension. The recommended
tension setting procedure is to turn the adjustment
screw clockwise until it stops, and then back the
adjustment screw out six full revolutions. Use the
notch in the screw to count each revolution. Repeat
this procedure for each top lock bracket.
WARNING: The locking system is designed to release
the canopies in high winds to protect the canopies. The
adjusting screws can be used to adjust the tension. Do
not overtighten, as this could increase the chance for
canopy damage in high winds.
