Troubleshooting

Tarpaulin is not fully covering the intended area.

Verify the dimensions of the area needing coverage. Note the +/- 10% dimensional tolerance. Use additional securing points or a larger tarp if necessary.

Water is pooling on the surface of the tarpaulin.

Adjust the tension and securing points to create a slope, allowing water to run off. Ensure no sagging points exist.

Eyelets seem loose or damaged.

Inspect the eyelets carefully. If damaged, consider reinforcing the area with a patch and creating a new secure point, or contact customer support for options.

Material appears to be stiff in cold weather.

This is normal for robust materials in low temperatures. Allow the material to warm slightly before attempting to unfold or install it to prevent stress.
