Those clips just push on, pretty easy with a little umphf. And to take one off, if you need to move the fabric a bit, just grab the loose edge of the fabric and give a hard yank up and it pops right off.

This next pic shows one of the ends (Sue, if you ever work with me, this is what I mean as an end LOL) clipped up. As you can see, this fabric comes with panels that will zip up and roll up out of the way.

We centered the end panel across the frame while the fabric was laying on the ground, then we lifted it up and clipped the top center to the center of the rafter. We stretched it across the bottom and clipped it, then worked from the top center down each side to the bottom, moving from side to side to keep things centered as we went along. We did need to adjust the first bottom clips we put on, but they kept things from flapping and moving too much, so they served their initial purpose.

This part went pretty quick. We were able to get both end panels on by lunch time. =0)
