Ridge Poles

End Wall Cross Connector

The end wall connector is manufactured in the OPEN position for an easier installation
over the hoops. End wall cross connectors help to keep the ridgepole from extending
past the end hoops and poking the plastic end walls. We recommend adding a #8 self
tap screw to all tension bands and end wall cross connectors - but not the saddle type
cross connectors.
Note: Since each hoop will be connected to the first end wall it should be carefully
made plumb and held that way as you make the connections. You can do this easily
using stakes and rope. Wrap a rope up and around the hoop. Using a magnetic level,
stake the rope securely on either side of the hoop with the hoop directly perpendicular
to the ground. If you need to, move the stakes slightly left or right in order to secure the
hoop in the proper position.
