INSTALLING SHADE SAIL
A. Your Coolhaven Shade Sail Kit includes the fixing
accessories needed for installation (Fig. 9). IMPORTANT:
Be sure to use the included turnbuckles on two of the
shade sail’s attachment points for proper tensioning. A
rope or chain can be used to extend your shade sail to a
fixing point if required. Additional fixing accessories may
be purchased on www.coolaroousa.com
B. Connect fixing accessories to mounting points as
required. Ensure all accessories face towards the middle
of the shade sail and are tightly secured (Fig. 10).
C. Connect all points, using the included strap tensioning
tool if necessary to gain increased leverage (Fig. 11). Stop
tensioning when the shade sail is rigid with little or no
creases and does not sag. The tighter the shade sail the
less movement and less movement means longer life of
the shade sail (Fig. 12).
D. For Temporary Installations using rope (Fig. 13).
