CANOPY FRAME ASSEMBLY
Perimeter Frame Assembly.
To assemble the Perimeter Frame:
• Identify the parts from the parts list. Lay them out
on a flat surface, and join the tubes together.
• Drill 1/16in pilot holes at the five joins ’A’, in the
tubes, and secure them with self tapping #10
Pan Hd. Screws (31).
Assembling the Cross Brace Tubes.
There are seven Cross Brace Tubes
• The Front and Rear Cross Braces (24), are
‘angled’ at 20 deg. (All other Cross Braces are
‘angled’ at 25deg.).
Brace Clamps (13), attach the Cross Braces to
the Perimeter Frame.(Carriage Bolts facing down).
• Position the front one 18 inches from the Front
Tube (27), of the Perimeter Frame.
Position the rear one 7 inches from the Rear
Tube (26), of the Perimeter Frame.
• Second Cross Brace (23), is painted ‘Red’. It has
one half of a Brace Clamp welded at each end.
Use one half of a Brace Clamp, to attach it to the
Perimeter Frame.
• Use Brace Clamps to fasten the remaining four
Cross Braces (25), to the Perimeter Frame, they
must be spaced as illustrated.
• Lift the assembled Canopy Frame onto the Canopy
Support (1), with the Perimeter Frame placed in
the halves of the Brace Clamps, (that are welded
to the Canopy Frame), secure in place with half
Brace Clamps.
