STEP 1. LAYOUT, AND SETTING UP PACKING CLAMPS

1. Anchor the risers at the connector links including the steering lines. [Figure 5-71]

2. Place packing weight on top of it.

3. Pull the slider down to the connector links. Make sure the tapes face upward toward the canopy. [Figure 5-72]

4. Lay the canopy on its right side. (Note: A mirror image of the layout is permissible).

5. Flake the canopy so the top seams are even. Place a clamp on the top of the canopy in line with each line attachment point as in figure 5-73 on page 5-34.
