A Word About Safety
Just as we want you to be pleased with your assembled shelter, we don
ʼ
t want you to get hurt in the
process of building it! Our suggestions include the following:
• Wear eye protection when drilling and power-screwing.
• Wear head protection when working with/under heavy parts including metal tubing.
• Wear gloves when handling metal tubing due to sharp or rough ends.
• Use a portable GFCI when working with corded power tools.
• Never erect a shelter directly under power lines.
• Be careful not to drive anchors into buried power cables.
• Do not climb on the shelter or its frame. It is not designed to support human weight.
• If the shelter is enclosed, provide proper and adequate ventilation.
• Do not store hazardous materials in the shelter without proper ventilation and precautions.
• If both ends are covered, provide proper ingress and egress to prevent entrapment.
• Do not occupy the shelter during very high winds, hurricanes, or tornadoes.
• If shelter is moved after construction, inspect shelter thoroughly before reuse.
• Use common sense at all times.
