4. Fold the left group of the anti-inversion net (figure 39, item 1) and lower lateral band over the right
groups of gores (figure 39, item 2). Replace packing weight.
5. Fold left group of gores (figure 39, item 3) in a similar manner, adjusting packing weights to hold
both groups of gores.

the apex.
