Installing the Front Split Hinge
(Use Hardware Enclosure set, see Figure 7)
1. First assemble the Front Split Hinge by joining the RH and LH
Split Hinge parts, oriented as shown in Figure 43. Fasten them
together with one 3/8-16 X 2 3/4 Bolt and one 3/8-16 Low profile
Nut using two 9/16” Wrenches. Do not overtighten, as these
two components will need to rotate about one another.
2. Next, slip the Split Hinge Assembly through the canvas opening
in the front corner, making sure the rolled hinges are oriented
up and the Retainer Studs pass through the holes in the hinge
(Figure 44).
3. Secure the hinge onto the Retainer Studs with Thumb Screw
Knobs loosely fastened.
4. Inside the canvas, position the Split Hinge to the Tube Frame by aligning the hinge to the outer most hole on the frame
(Figure 45).
Note: The inner hole on the tube frame is to allow for adjustability if the canvas loosens over time and needs to be tightened.
5. Secure the Split Hinge to the Tube Frame by dropping in one 3/8-16 X 2 3/4 Bolt and finger tightening one 3/8-16 Low
profile Nut.
6. Repeat steps 2 through 5 in the other corner to fully secure the hinge to the canvas and the frame.
7. With the Split Hinge now positioned correctly, fully tighten down all four Thumb Screw Knobs.
8. Tighten down the 3/8-16 Bolts and Nuts to engage the nylon lock using a 9/16” wrench and 9/16” ratcheting socket. Ensure
the Split Hinge can still rotate about the Tube Frame after tightening.
