Using Storm locks on a greenhouse roof vent Rhino Greenhouse

Engage storm locks, if you have them.
In strong winds, it is best to dis-engage the cylinders and engage the roof vent locks. Here is a brief list of what you need to do when you want to lock your roof vents. The roof vent openers need to be de-activated BEFORE you lock your roof vents. Locking the roof vents without this could cause damage to your auto openers and potentially damage your roof vents.
Remove the pin from the auto vent
Once pin has been removed , push the roof vent up slightly so that the cylinder drops out of the black cup
Unscrew the cylinder
Repeat on all other openers
Now you can lock them down to help prevent damage
Keep cylinders stored in a cool place until needed, cool in fridge before refitting
Remember to slide locks up out of the way when refitting cylinders
