Install The Gentent Frame - Westinghouse wGenTent User Manual

ASSEMBLY

2. INSTALL THE GENTENT FRAME

a. Orient the center connector with the
vent pin up and position the cen-
tral connector to match generator
alignment, short and long sides,
respectively.
b. Insert the first frame rod into the center
connector, making sure it is seated all
the way into the connector. (Fig. 2.1).
Always insert the frame rod into the
center connector before inserting it
into the clamp.
c. Insert the other end of the frame rod
fully into the corresponding clamp hole
position. (Fig. 2.2)
CAUTION
frame rods & center connector firmly
during installation to avoid the whip-
ping motion that can occur if a bent
fiberglass rod is mistakenly released.
d. Install the frame rods into the
center connector in a crisscross
pattern. Always be sure to grasp
the free end of the frame rod firmly.
Then bend the free end towards
the clamp and insert fully into the
correct hole.
e. Repeat for remaining frame rods.
f. Check the clamps; the frame rods
should be fully seated into the
clamps. (Fig. 2.3) The clamp may
exhibit a slight upward lean; this is
due to the force being applied to
the clamp by the fiberglass rods.
