SHELTER CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Proper care and maintenance of your shelter is important.
Check the following items periodically to
properly maintain your shelter
:
• Regularly check the main cover and panels (if equipped) to see that these remain tight and in proper
repair.
ATTENTION:
Covers installed in cool or cold temperatures may relax as the air temperature
increases. Check the main cover straps frequently during the first few weeks and after stormy or
windy weather to verify that they remain tight. Tighten as needed.
• Repair any damage to the cover immediately to prevent further complications and damage.
• Check connections and all fasteners to verify that they remain tight.
• Do not climb or stand on the shelter at anytime.
• Remove debris and objects that may accumulate on the shelter cover. Use tools that will not damage
the cover or end panels when removing debris.
• Remove snow to prevent excess accumulation. Use tools that will not damage the cover when
removing snow.
Never allow snow to accumulate on the cover!
• Check the contents of the shelter to verify that nothing is touching the cover that could cause damage.
• Check the anchoring system (if equipped) to ensure that all components are tight and in good repair.
• Check the wood frame periodically to ensure that it is in good repair and that all rafter mounts are
secure.
• Repair or replace all customer-supplied materials as needed to prevent injury or damage.
• Inspect the barrier rods and pipe and all related mounting clamps to ensure that these remain intact
and in place.
• Inspect the gathering door and all related components to ensure proper operation. Replace worn or
broken cables and cable clamps as needed.
• Inspect all winch mounts, mounting brackets, and pulley brackets to ensure these remain tight and
in good repair.
To prevent door damage and possible injury, door must remain fully open or
completely closed.
• Verify that all fasteners remain tight and in place.
• Replace all worn or damaged parts promptly.
• For replacement or missing parts, call 1.800.245.9881 for assistance.
