I just finished the "Big Cut" on my tip up canopy last evening and have a question. After the cut, and cleaning the edges I put the front part of the canopy back on. After the cut, the rear of it dropped down the 1/4 to 1/2" to rest on the roll bar. This, in turn, caused the cut edge at the bottom to shift forward off the line.
It would seem prudent while continuing to trim it to fit, that I could move the whole canopy rearward and when all the rest fit good, make another cut on the back edge to align with the center of the roll bar.
It seems that the 1-3/4" dimension that the instructions give you from the front of F-702 to the canopy is somewhat arbitrary. Would 3/8" be to much to move it back? I really only need an 1/8 or so, but it's easier to cut when you're actually taking a sliver of material off.
In retrospect, the "big cut" is really more nerve wracking than it is hard.
Thanks for the help.
