Furling jib questions

i have an un rigged Harken furling jib. I assume that it is rigged with out the halyard. is that correct? The boat will be stored lake side with the jib up. I would like to put a jib sock on it to protect the jib from UV. Would it make sense to just use the jib halyard ( or a lighter weight line )to pull up the sock?
thanks

From what I have been told, the trailing edge of the jib has a special UV treatment right on it. Nonetheless, I ordered a job cover with my new boat...more to prevent against whipping.
