    Well not seeing the style you have, there are various ones, but the first thing to check is the adjustment of your spring tension. You will have a spring either in the tarp roller, under the box or two on each side connected to the tarp arms.

    And if you have good tension pulling and it still won't go down.....has anyone cut and re-welded any of the linkage arms?
