- Page 2 Initial Set-Up Procedure: 1. Determine which wall in your facility to define as the Tensioning Wall and which to define as the Anchoring Wall (see Figures 1-1 and 2-1, or 4-1 for Short-Span Systems). The Tensioning Wall will have the 2:1 Tensioning Assemblies attached to it with tensioning halyards hanging down to the floor.
- Page 3 6. Attach one Anchor-End Block to each eyebolt on the Anchoring Wall by unscrewing the clevis pin to remove the clevis (similar to procedure for Tensioning Blocks in Step 3). You may need pliers to loosen the pin initially. Hang the clevis onto the eyebolt, re-insert the pin to attach the Anchor-End Block, and tighten by hand.
