With the cover positioned... carefully fold up the sides and tuck the listing sleeves down into the channels in the bun and make the reference marks on the cover sleeves. Carefully rotate the cushion w/o moving the cover and do the same on the other side.
On these upper cushions i decided to make 5 reference marks and hogring positions.
The reason for that is we need to leave the bottom few inches loose to allow the cover to pull up at the bottom while we are stretching it.
So attach the top 3 hogrings on each side, but leave the bottom two off.
Flip the cushion over.
Take a zip tie to the top side hole in the frame and attach it to a spring- Then compress it down as far as it will go.
Repeat on the other side of the top.
Doing this makes things MUCH easier when pulling the cover up and over and right side out on the top of the cushion.
We will cut & remove this later once the cover is right side out.
