b. Install reflector support strap assembly (support strap, tube clamp, and screws, see Figure 13) in middle of
reflector to secure reflector to tube. Tighten screws.
Figure 13. Reflector Support Strap Installation
NOTE: Reflector joints and end caps are held together using U-clips. Where impact and/or wind
might be a factor, field-supplied pop rivets or sheet metal screws may be used.
⚠ CAUTION ⚠
Reflectors must overlap a minimum of 6 inches (16 cm). The installation of reflectors must allow for
expansion and contraction through the use of slip overlaps at every third overlap. A slip overlap
is created by loosening the reflector support strap screws 1/16-inch (1.6-mm). To create a non-slip
overlap, tighten the screws.
c. Slide second reflector through suspension brackets and overlap first reflector at least 6 inches (16 cm). Install
reflector support strap assembly within overlap and secure support strap using non-slip overlap (see Figure 13).
d. Install remaining reflectors and support straps using non-slip overlaps (tightened screws) for every two-out-
of-three overlaps and slip overlaps (loose screws, see Figure 13) for every third overlap. Secure reflectors
together using U-clips where suspension bracket occurs inside non-slip overlap.
6. Install end caps and secure using U-clips as shown in Figure 14.
