Just loosen and take out or loosed the 3/16" bolts that hold it together and be flexible-nimble as they are hard to get to. Used to do it all the time as had 3 different machines and 2 at a time for quite a while.
 
Remember to install with the loose end of the flap away from the direction of travel. ie, on the platform, they hang downhill.
 
I bought my Allcrop for $100 and have never seen one work. It looks to be in good shape except for the canvas. I'm told there are different screens available but I didn't ask the price. It was kept in a shed all it's life till the last couple years. I'm only farming 90 acres so I think it's big enough to suit me. I'm going to try to find a manual for it. Any idea where to find the right canvas? What is the right canvas? What years the 60 was built? Any information is greatly appreciated.
 

Great machines...!

One thing to remember:
Always take the bottom doors loose ( of both elevators) at the end and beginning of the season.

I leave them hanging down when stored, so mice poop does not cause rust on the bottom doors.
You will need at least a couple seed screens..one for Soybeans, another for Wheat and another for Timothy and Clover..
If you cut Soybeans with it..better Practice STOPPING extremely fast and learn how to force the machine to come to a Stop (mechanically), to keep Rocks from getting up into the cylinder bars..!!!
We seldom needed to put any tension on the canvas, while operating..or not very much if any..

We always opened a new field up without the straw spreader off and the side dust hood flipped up, counter-clockwise,following the fence around the field, then put the straw spreader back on..

Yaz All Crop(Google him) has most any part you will need for these machines. I replaced both canvases on mine some years ago, but can't remember where I got them now. Allis did have them a few years back, but the cost was idiotically high. Upper canvas isn't too hard to replace, but the lower one will have you wishing you had three arms, one with two elbows and two wrists. You do have to run enough tension on the canvases to make them drive consistently. Always release the tension after you are finished using it. Great old machine, I've been using mine for over 20 years. If you are running soybeans you will appreciate having hydraulics on the header if you can find a changeover kit.
 
WCCO for the canvases. 60 was built in the late 1940s----Dad bought his first about 1949. Traded for the 66 in 1957, after buying the WD45 in 1956. Finally had a live pto tractor, big improvement over the WC.
