My back is being a so'n'so this evening and it's made me think about raising our pop top... How difficult should it be? (early Devon side elevation).

Are the struts meant to assist the moment you initiate a lift? At the moment my technique is inside pushing upwards with my back and then arms once it's moving (I'm tall). What is the best Technique?

I have the opposite problem. I replaced my struts as the roof wasn't staying up without a support pole in the middle. Now it lifts super easy but pulling it back down is really hard. On mine once I have unhooked the outside clips and un done the inside strap I basically push it slightly and the struts do the rest.

Does your roof hold itself up once it's there?
