3. PVC Clip - The PVC clip is shown above. It is also quite simple. The clip is used to secure the aluminum mesh

to the various 1" x 1" box beams.

Aluminum stretched mesh is placed on the top surface of the 1" x 1" beam or

frame. The mesh should cover most of this surface.

To apply the clip see the figure above. Slide the surface with the small right angle bend under the 1" x 1" box beam

so it is approximately in the middle on the beam. Lift up on the top of the clip as shown, increasing the opening in

the clip and as you slide it over the mesh on the top of the box beam . Once over the mesh, push the clip until the

bottom of the clip catches the back of the box tube and locks into place. Caution- do not lock the bottom of the

clip on the back of the tube first. If you do this it will force the clip to be spread more than is required and could

result in it snapping.

Other considerations- The twisted nature of stretched aluminum creates a high coefficient of friction assisting the

clip in holding the mesh in place. Please note that the PVC clips do not perform any electrical function. Where

electrical conductivity is required self-tapping stainless screws are used.

The nature of the clips is such that if excessive force is applied to the mesh, for example, ice, snow and wind. The

clips will allow the mesh to release and loose it's load. If this happens remove the clips, reposition the mesh and

reapply the clips. If this occurs in frigid weather, bring the clips indoors until they reach room temperature before

reapplying otherwise they may snap. It is suggested you practice placing a clip on the 1" x 1" box beam without

mesh to learn the technique.

Just in case extra clips and corners have been provided for your use.

3-3 Super "C" grid Assembly

1. Grid overview - The control grid is a 6 foot by 6 foot aluminum mesh surface supported by a rugged 1" x 1"

box beam frame structure. Six roughly 70" two approximately 22" beams form the frame. Two of the long beams

possess numerous 1/8" drill holes as well as two ¼" holes on one side .

2. Grid Assembly - First, find a flat surface, a garage floor or driveway are perfect. Locate the two long tubes

with drill holes and place them side by side about 2 feet apart with their drill holes facing up.

A. Locate four of the PVC corners. Slide two on each of these long tubes with their prongs facing the other tube,

slide these corners toward the middle of each beam.
