Anchor ANCHORSPAN A 60FT-80FT - Manual (Page 22)

Installation of 2-pc Gabled End Panel (See bottom of Page 17)
1. Install Gabled End panel into Lower Beam Channel (same as liner channel) on the outer facing
surfaces of the first and/or last beam.
2. Because the flared opening in the liner channel is approximately 9’-6” feet high, a small step ladder will
be useful in feeding the gabled end fabric into the beam channel.
3. With workers positioned as shown (page 17) feed half of the 2-pc. end panel from each side of the
structure and join the two halves at the top and bottom of the center lace line, using the caribiners
provided.
4. For 70 & 80’ spans, the end panel should be laced completely from scaffolding or an appropri
ate scissor lift or manlift. 60’ spans can be laced from the bottom using a 14 ft step ladder and
down from the top by a worker laying on the fabric at the peak. (The worker on the fabric should
be tied off to the beam with a safety harness.)
5. On 60’ spans, the worker on the fabric laces down as far as he can safely reach. To complete the lace
easily, use a step ladder 14’ tall, or taller. Close the Velcro weather flap over the lace line, leaving a
slight puffy fullness in the flap as a stress release for the Velcro.
6. Tuck the tails of the end panel downward into the channel below the flare. The Gabled End will be
tensioned after the end uprights and eave bars have been installed.
Note: The Optional Sloped End is installed in the same way as the gabled end, except that it feeds
into the Upper Channel. Also, the sloped end is tensioned into century winches anchored with 2-ft
stake bars -- See footprint drawing for proper location of winch & stake bars.
