Locating Suspension Lines. To properly locate suspension lines, proceed as follows:
NOTE
Suspension lines 1 thru 16 are divided into two groups, 1 thru 8 in left group and 9 thru 16 in
right group.
(1)
Divide the suspension lines into left and right groups.
(2)
Place a packing weight around the right group of lines and move weight toward risers, checking for turns,
tangles and twists.
(3)
When Inversion, turns, tangles, and twists are present in a canopy assembly, the proper sequence for
removal to achieve proper layout is to remove an inversion first, remove turns secondly, then remove
tangles, and finally, remove twists as follows:
(a) Turns. A turn occurs when one group of suspension lines rotates around other group (figure 2-13).
