How to Fasten a Flag on a Flagpole
- 1). The ends of the halyard are knotted to make a loop; the flag should not become a part of this loop. Unfasten the halyard and find the attached snaps.
- 2). Attach the flag to these snaps and adjust them to be the same distance apart as the grommets on the flag. Do not allow any strain to be placed on the flag while moving the snaps.
- 3). Keep the halyard tight and raise the flag.
- 4). Secure the halyard rope when the flag is in the desired position.
