[QUOTE="Lampie, post: 127463, member: 760"] Geo Did mine last year , was not as hard as it looked but have at least two pairs of hands to do it. Also if it helps I found that to lock the roller with a split as advised was a bit of a fiddle. So what I did was cut up a metal coat hanger into about 8" lengths and pocked that through the hole and bent ends round, much easier and held it fine. To release the tension when the roller is removed from the arm I just used some mole grips on the end while someone else held the roller. Putting it back the same method worked fine. Having said that I will have to have another go at the tension as I did not quite put enough back in. If you need a hand let me know only just down the road from you. Whole thing only took a couple of hours. Lampie [/QUOTE]
