11. Chain link fabric (A) is cut to size but may need
to be shortened for exact fit. You may need to
“cut” the fabric by removing a wire. When the
fabric is fully unrolled and the ties have secured
the fabric to the vertical members for tightness,
you should assess the remaining length and
whether the fabric will need to be shortened.
Insert the drop rod (G) into the fabric and with the
help of the Gate Clips (BB) pull the fabric toward
the final vertical and determine if there is excess
length and measure to see how much will need to
be removed for proper fit. Removing one wire will
result in a shortening of approx. 1-3/4". Using pliers,
unlock the knuckles at the top and bottom of wire
to be removed.
Then, twist the wire out from the top.
Remove the appropriate number of wires, without
removing too many. Close the knuckles with pliers.
Drop a tension rod (G) in the last diamonds of the
fabric and stretch it tight. Connect to post with five
gate clips (BB). Fasten fabric with wire ties (AA).
Place ties around bottom of kennel at 12 in. intervals.
Place ties around top at 18 in. intervals.
ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Note:
Once the chain link fabric is stretched and secured
installer must then go back and tighten all wire ties.
It’s imperative that bottom wire ties are secured to
ensure the dog cannot break through enclosure.
Expect to use about 31 of the wire ties to secure the
top of the fabric to the frame and likewise use 49 of the
wire ties to hold the bottom of the fabric tight.
