Optional Upgrades

If you did not order any of the additional upgrades you can skip to the section on
attaching your plastic starting on page 40. Many upgrades are installed before the
plastic or this affects the installation steps.

Purlin Kit (Optional)

**The Purlin Kit is installed the same way as the ridge poles.**
Tools
● Drill w/ ¼" bit
● Step ladder
● Saw
● Ratchet & Sockets
Parts
● Cross connector 1.375'' (2 per hoop)
● 75in swaged ridge pole (# dependent on length of kit)
● 36in extension ridge pole (2)
● End wall cross connectors
Installing Purlins
You may notice the hoops may still need adjusting as you work your way down. Use a
clamp to help pull the Purlin to the hoop so you can install the cross connectors.

Purlin poles will be installed approximately
on the 50° mark. Half way between the
ridge pole and your hip braces. Depending
on your end wall options it may or may not
fall in line with vertical end wall supports.
This is okay as they are not dependent on
each other.
