SIDE AND FRONT PANEL INSTALLATION
Side panels are used to provide privacy and protection
from wind and weather. These optional panels are attached
to the sides of the frame in the same manner as the main
cover is attached.
Contact Customer Service at 1-800-245-9881 if you want to
order the optional side panels for your shelter.
1. Locate the ball tie-downs and select one side panel.
2. Unfold the panel along the side of the frame where it
will be installed.
NOTE:
Side panels are designed to fit the angle of the
frame. Consult the photo below when installing the
optional panels.
3. Attach the panel to the frame using the ball tie downs.
Refer to the main cover installation if needed.
NOTE:
The optional panels
will not
wrap around the
frame piping. A space will remain between the edge of
the panel and the shelter frame.
4. Continue by installing the remaining optional panels.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Proper care and maintenance of the shelter will help to
ensure years of service. The following items identify areas
that should be periodically checked to ensure that your
shelter is maintained properly:
• Regularly check the roof covers to see that they remain
tight and in proper repair.
• 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 can accumulate on the
shelter. Use tools that will not damage the cover when
removing debris.
• Remove snow to prevent excess accumulation. Use
tools that will not damage the cover when removing
snow.
• Check the contents of the shelter to verify that nothing
is touching the cover that could cause damage.
• Check the anchoring system to ensure that all
components are tight and in good repair.
• If the shelter is moved, inspect all parts and
connections before reassembling.
• Never pack the covers when they are wet. Always dry
them before you pack the shelter.
• For replacement or missing parts, call 1-800-245-9881
for assistance.
NOTE:
With the exception of Truss Arch buildings,
FarmTek® shelters and greenhouses
do not
have any
tested loading criteria.
