Anchor Funbrella Palm Assembly Instructions Manual Download Page 8

Anchor products are of superior design and operate best within the parameters of these instructions.  It is imperative 

that the instructions be carefully read and 

COMPLETELY FOLLOWED

.  Please read installation instructions before the 

installation or removal of this product.  Installation instructions are available online at 

www.anchorinc.com 

or by calling 

1-800-544-4445.

CAUTION: 

1.  For each installation, the installer is solely responsible for evaluating the site and the proper securing method 

determined.  Some soils require different staking or securing than that provided with the tent.  Due to this variety of 

soil conditions, these are the manufacturer’s suggested sequence of installation procedures.  Anchor’s responsibility 

is limited to the manufacture of the tent parts and materials.  We are not responsible for methods that installers may 

choose to erect and secure the tent to the ground.

2.  The mounting method suggested in the installation instructions does not necessarily meet all or any relevant codes 

on the site of the installation.  The method suggested 

will, in many cases, keep the structure erected

, however, 

due to various soil conditions; this method may be insuf

fi

 cient 

to keep the structure secure in high winds

.  It is 

the installer’s responsibility, not the manufacturer, to determine the appropriate method of securing the structure 

to meet the necessary wind loads on the site.  Regardless of the mounting method we suggest, we make no 

representation or warranty as to whether the mounting method suggested will meet the local code.  Anchor does 

not, nor can it make any suggestions, representation, or warranties about the adequate mounting required at each 

speci

fi

 c installation site.

3.  Inasmuch as the weather is unpredictable, good judgment and common sense must be incorporated within 

installation guidelines. It is the responsibility of the tent installer/maintainer to determine the severity of the weather, 

proper time and method of installation and/or erection and disassembly.  

Note:  We recommend that snow and 

ice be removed from the tent surface as soon as possible because accumulation will damage the tent 
or fabric structure.  Please consult with our Engineering Department about the maximum loads for each 
product.

This product has been manufactured for use as a temporary sunshade structure.  For the safety of all occupants, 

evacuation is recommended if threatening weather occurs, or if there is any doubt concerning the safe use of this 

product.

4.  Proper safety equipment should be used at all times to insure a safe installation and take down.  We suggest a 

careful evaluation be made to determine safety equipment needed, such as hard hats, steel-toe shoes, safety 

glasses and other as required.  It is our desire that all installations are safe.  Please be aware of hidden dangers 

both underground, i.e., gas lines, water lines, electrical lines, etc. and above the tent such as power lines and 

telephone lines.

5.  Anchor stands behind its products in accordance with its standard Terms and Conditions of sale.  A copy of our 

Terms and Conditions of Sale can be obtained by contacting Anchor at the telephone number and/or address on
