Abstract
A roof assembly for a shelter having an eave assembly and a cable assembly with a first cable portion extending between corners of the eave assembly horizontally and a second cable portion extending from each corner to an apex. A center post has a lower end coupled to the first cable portion and an upper end coupled to the second cable portion. When the cable assembly is tightened, the center post supports a tarpaulin. A mechanism, integral to the eave assembly, includes a lever rotatably mounted to a first elongated tube of the roof assembly, the first tube defining an elongated slot and receives a second tube. An arm extends from the lever and through the elongated slot to engage the second tube such that when the lever moves, the eave assembly expands to tension the cable assembly.
