Troubleshooting

Tarpaulin is not staying in place.

Ensure you are using all 6 eyelets for secure fastening. Use strong ropes or ties and secure them to stable anchor points. Check for excessive wind and consider a more robust solution if conditions are extreme.

Water is pooling on the tarpaulin.

Ensure the tarpaulin is stretched taut and angled to allow water runoff. Do not let it sag between tie-down points, as this can create pools that may compromise protection over time.

Material appears to be weakening or tearing.

Inspect the eyelets and edges for signs of wear. Avoid over-tightening ropes on the eyelets. If damage is significant, consider replacing the tarpaulin as it may no longer offer reliable protection.
