ATTACH END PANEL ASSEMBLIES
Gather the Parts:
• End Panel Assemblies
• Fabric Clips (Divide quantity in half.)
• Tek Screws
• Measuring Tape and Scissors
Assembly Procedure
1. While standing inside the shelter, start at the peak of
the end rafter and pull the solid (plain) end panel over
the top of the rafter so the material edge is on the
inside of the rafter.
2. Secure the solid end panel in place at the top center of
end rafter with a fabric clip and Tek screw.
3. Moving outward in both directions, place fabric clips
spaced evenly on rafter. Use half of the clips for each
end panel.
4. Secure each fabric clip to end rafter with a Tek screw
(on side where it will not contact cover). Keep panel
tight during the clip installation to prevent wrinkles.
NOTE:
The end panels may be shipped as untrimmed
rectangular pieces. If so, use scissors to trim the
excess end panel material inside the shelter to an inch
or two past the fabric clip as shown below.
PREPARE MAIN COVER
Gather the Parts:
• Ratchets
• Pipe 1.315'' x 75'' Swaged (4)
• Pipe 1.315'' x 73.5'' Plain (2)
• Cover
• Tek Screws
Assembly Procedure
The main cover is attached to one side of the shelter using
D-ring straps. It is stretched and secured to the remaining
side with straps and ratchets. The ends (front and back)
are secured to the bottom of each end panel corner with
a ratchet attached to the end panel conduit. The straps to
secure the ends of the main cover come pre-installed.
NOTE:
When handling the main cover and setting it in
position, do not pull on the end straps. They will pull out of
the cover.
WARNING:
To prevent damage to the cover and to
prevent serious personal injury, DO NOT attempt to
install the main cover on windy days.
1. Fasten a ratchet to the end conduit with a Tek screw
in the bottom hole of the ratchet as shown below. The
ratchet should be about 6'' in from the end of the
conduit. Repeat this step in all four corners.
5. Secure the zippered end panel in place using fabric
clips with Tek screws as completed on the plain end
panel. Close zippers before installation. To prevent
damage to zippers,
do not over-stretch the end panel.
NOTE:
Align the panel zippers with the customer-
supplied 4” x 4” anchor posts so the door opening is
unobstructed.

2. Assemble two main cover conduits. Start each conduit
assembly with one 73.5” plain pipe and add two (2) 75”
swaged pipes to arrive at the correct length. Secure
each pipe joint with a Tek screw and
wrap the joint with
duct tape
.
These cover conduits are inserted into the pockets of
the main cover. The conduits are used to tighten and
secure the main cover.
